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

> hadoop-common uses httpclient as undeclared dependency and have unused 
> dependency to commons-httpclient. Vise versa in hadoop-azure and 
> hadoop-openstack.
