@eolivelli `ConsumerBuilder` is a class in **pulsar-client-api** module that
has no dependency. If **pulsar-common** was added as the dependency of
**pulsar-client-api** because it will cause cyclic dependency.
```
org.apache.pulsar:pulsar-common:jar:2.9.0-SNAPSHOT
+- org.apache.pulsar:pulsar-client-api:jar:2.9.0-SNAPSHOT:compile
```
Also we can't put `PayloadConverter` into **pulsar-client-api** package
because we must import `BrokerEntryMetadata` and `MessageMetadata` from
**pulsar-common** package.
If we changed the `PayloadConverter` interface to
```java
interface PayloadConverter {
ByteBuf convert(ByteBuf headerAndPayload);
}
```
Maybe it could work, but we need to parse `BrokerEntryMetadata` and
`MessageMetadata` repeatedly in all valid implementations. BTW, we need to
import netty dependency for `ByteBuf`. I'm not sure if it's proper for
**pulsar-client-api** package to do that.
