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
Type: Bug
Components: Dependencies
Reporter: Jimisola Laursen
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. JDK
1.5 or not, I have the exclude all the dependencies that Jaxen 1.1-beta-9 has.
