Github user HeartSaVioR commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/2498 4. publish "a" shaded artifact which shades and relocates error-prone artifacts I proposed 4 in discussion thread, and now Flink is leveraging 4. I was worrying about LICENSE issue (because I don't know well) but as Flink goes well with that approach for months, I think it worths to do.
