Magento 2.4.3 → 2.4.4 Upgrade - now getting an unknown composer message

[GTLTD]

Hello.

I've upgraded Magento from 2.4.3 to 2.4.4, and now when running composer commands I get the message:

The "laminas/laminas-dependency-plugin" plugin was skipped because it requires a Plugin API version (">=1.1.0 <2.3.0") that does not match your Composer installation ("2.3.0"). You may need to run composer update with the "--no-plugins" option.

What do I do to stop this please?

Hello @GTLTD 

You are not using latest composer, which is required to magento 2.4.

Uninstall previous composer and install latest one.

Kindly refer below link:
Update Composer 

It will help you!
Thank you

I have installed:

Composer version 2.3.7 2022-06-06 16:43:28

Which according to the Magento system requirements should be fine?

Hello.

That's the thing - I haven't updated it. That version is installed but I am still getting that error?

Issue resolved (I think.)

laminas/laminas-dependency-plugin version installed was 2.3.0, Magento 2.4.4 requires 2.2.0. Rolled back to 2.2.0, and now no error. Even the composer file for Magento 2.4.5 states version 2.2.0 of laminas/laminas-dependency-plugin.
