[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEV-413?page=comments#action_73678 ] Jimisola Laursen commented on MEV-413: --------------------------------------
I've already filed an enhancement request (JAXEN-151). Like I wrote in my previous comment I haven't seen any signs of life from them yet. > Jaxen has unnecessary and unexpected dependencies (which cause problems with > JDK 1.5) > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MEV-413 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEV-413 > Project: Maven Evangelism > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Dependencies > Reporter: Jimisola Laursen > Assigned To: Carlos Sanchez > > The pom > (http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/jaxen/jaxen/1.1-beta-9/jaxen-1.1-beta-9.pom) > has dependencies on domj, jdom, xom, xerces:xercesImpl and > xerces:xmlParserAPIs (see below). > I can't see why any of these dependencies are necessary - especially not the > dependency on xerces. A slimmed down verson of Xerces is included with JDK > 1.5 and adding an addition Xerces in the classpath caused some major > headache.
