---------------------------------
Summary: Flink CDC connector release contains jar with
incompatible licenses
Key: FLINK-35055
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-35055
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Flink CDC
Reporter: Xiqian YU
Currently, Flink CDC connector releases both slim and fat jars. Apart from CDC
itself, all of its dependencies are packaged into fat jars, including some with
incompatible licenses:
* Db2 connector: `com.ibm.db2.jcc:db2jcc:db2jcc4` licensed with a non-FOSS
license (International Program License Agreement).
* MySQL connector: `mysql:mysql-connector-java` licensed with GPLv2 license,
which is incompatible with Apache 2.0.
* Oracle connector: `com.oracle.ojdbc` licensed with a non-FOSS license
(Oracle Free Use Terms and Conditions).
To fix this problem we may:
# Exclude questionable dependencies from released jar;
# Add docs to guide user download & place dependencies manually.
