Sami Siren resolved NUTCH-724.
------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
> Drop the JAI libraries
> ----------------------
>
> Key: NUTCH-724
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-724
> Project: Nutch
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 1.0.0
>
>
> The PDF parser plugin contains Java Advanced Imaging (JAI) libraries
> (jai_core.jar and jai_codec.jar) that are licensed under the Sun Binary Code
> License. The license is incompatible with Apache policies, so we need to drop
> those libraries.
> AFAIK (see PDFBOX-381) PDFBox only uses the JAI libraries for handling page
> rotations and tiff images, so simply dropping the JAI jars shouldn't have too
> much impact. A better solution would be to switch to using Apache PDFBox that
> has a proper workaround for this issue, but the first Apache PDFBox release
> has not yet been made.
