Yes in Airavata we have fairly large transitive dependencies (112 jars) and it 
took us a while, but thanks to our mentor Ate Douma's persistence we now have 
the binary distribution L&N files right. An automatic tool would have been 
nice, but what we found was for some of the non-apache jars you really have to 
go to the websites and find the files. If Kafka's needs help in verifying the 
requirements for next release I will be happy to help. FYI, here are Airavata 
L&N files [1]  [2
