Masatake Iwasaki commented on HADOOP-12552: ------------------------------------------- Sure. The downstream projects implicitly using commons-httpclient provided as transient dependency of hadoop-common need to update the POM. The fix is not urgent and not worth to bother downstream projects. I think it's ok to make this trunk-only. [Compatibility guide currently does not state a policy for dependencies|https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.7.1/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/Compatibility.html#Java_Classpath], for reference. > Fix undeclared/unused dependency to httpclient > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-12552 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12552 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: build > Reporter: Masatake Iwasaki > Assignee: Masatake Iwasaki > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HADOOP-12552.001.patch > > > hadoop-common uses httpclient as undeclared dependency and have unused > dependency to commons-httpclient.
