Canton Network Repos

You're debugging Canton Network participants or trying to figure out why your DAML packages have mismatched IDs. This maps the three-tier dependency chain (Splice depends on Canton depends on DAML SDK) and explains why changing LF versions silently breaks everything. The version tables are genuinely useful: Splice 0.5.4 ships with a snapshot SDK that predates LF 2.2, so you need to know you're on Canton 3.4.9 with SDK 3.4.9 to compile against the newer target. It walks through the actual config files across repos and includes the cryptographic package ID derivation rules. If you've ever seen "upgrade validation failed" without understanding why swapping enterprise and community DARs matters, the LF version compatibility section explains it.
