> It is not good style to depend on *.impl of a package - it is liable to fall
> over at some point. jena-osgi complains, but works in this particular case,
> because xercesImpl is shadowed in.
> Some/all of these (base64) are available through more official packages -
> org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64 comes to mind.
> https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-codec/apidocs/org/apache/commons/codec/binary/Base64.html
> https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-codec/apidocs/org/apache/commons/codec/binary/Hex.html
> So this task suggests to replace these dependencies with commons-codec
> versions. Remember to add commons-codec to jena-osgi as well!
