Problem/Motivation

Some people and distributions updated to the 2.x branch, which contains some non-qa'ed and broken commits.

Proposed resolution

As the project page states:

If you are on 2.x, you can either downgrade to 1.x, or upgrade to 3.x, IF no other contrib module still requires 1.x only. In this case open an issue on that project, see #3407711: Other projects should require drupal/inline_entity_form ^1 || ^3
Reporting back to #3407407: Clarify how to site-upgrade IEF 2.x => 1.x|3.x is appreciated. (Note that the you WILL lose all the non-quality-assured features from 2.x. To any complainers: Feel free to write or pay a test for your favorite feature, or maintain a fork with lower maintenance standard yourself.)

If there are any more useful information. it can be shared in this issue.

I noticed this PR: https://git.drupalcode.org/project/inline_entity_form/-/merge_requests/103
which implies that the 3.x branch once released wont support drupal 9. I think it is very important to let folks know that this is
an additional reason to downgrade to 1.x rather than up to 3.x. Obviously many many of us aren't at drupal 10 yet.

Thanks...

@jwag956: Thanks for this information. Please state it there.
What do you think about php8.1?

re PHP 8.1 - no comment - I moved to PHP8 many months ago with no issues. Moving to D10 will take another few months as there are still modules we use that aren't quite ready.
FYI - this module is awesome and a critical part of one of our workflows for adding research publications with articles and authors - so we have 2 levels of inline forms... Thanks for all the hard work...
