Not sure,
At least I tried to create Last3MonthsSalesReport.pdf with
compile 'com.lowagie:itext:2.1.7' // don't update because of license change
and it works (empty):

So we exclude the transitive dependency in build.gradle and if everything
works then we're fine.
Syntax:
compile('com.lowagie:itext:4.2.0') {
exclude 'com.itextpdf:itextpdf:5.5.6'
}

Hey Jacques,
Maybe I wasn't clear, OFBiz is downloading 5.5.6 as a dependency of 4.2.0,
does it make sense?

I suggest this comment, a Jira seems appropriate
- compile 'com.lowagie:itext:4.2.0'
+ compile 'com.lowagie:itext:4.2.0' // don't update to 5+ because of
license change

Hi All,
I just noticed that the iText maven bundle is a bit tricksy and
includes
iText 5.6.6 as a dependency, with the latter being GPL licensed. You
can
see it by running "./gradlew -q dependencies":
+--- com.lowagie:itext:4.2.0
| \--- com.itextpdf:itextpdf:5.5.6
I haven't checked to see if the later version is actually used by our
code
and I'm not sure if merely downloading it causes licensing issues,
but
I
thought I'd bring the question here in case anyone else has already
looked
into it. Not sure what the work-around would be if it is an issue.
Regards
Scott
