Georges,
I give you the answer from the developper to help you understand the issue :

****************************
DOCman runs on Joomla 3 and 4, compatibility for Joomla 5 is already finished and about to be released. This means that our code sometimes makes version checks, and sometimes it looks for precise classes to decide and act upon ... the problem introduced by Flexicontent is that since they say ... well JEventDispatcher is no longer available since Joomla 4, let's define it again for our convenience ... the BIG problem is that they are changing the API by making it implement a different interface. JEventDispatcher is now effectively an alias class from the current Joomla\Event\Dispatcher class because of the code I've pointed out. This is very bad practice in an environment where you have code running from different vendors and also providing compatibility for different Joomla versions. If there's code looking for JEventDispatcher and ends up finding it ... the code assumes that JEventDispatcher should in fact behave as JEventDispatcher ... instead JEventDispatcher is now behaving as Joomla\Event\Dispatcher because of Flexicontent.

I hope this helps clarifying things.

****************************

So, so far, the JEventDispatcher is not existing in J4 or J5 and still declared in Flexicontent, this causing this issue ?

Sorry Micker, but this is a coding issue from Flexicontent using a class not used anymore if I understand well and maybe Georges will understand more this issue.
