Yes, Kepler M2 is coming up fast! (+0 date is 9/21) See Bug 388140 for the gory details, but we in Orbit plan to remove some "old" logging bundles from _active_ builds for Kepler. This does not effect any previous "R-build" repositories. We call this "aggressive" since we normally leave the past 2 or 3 versions in Orbit's active builds, just in case anyone needs them (and there are several legitimate cases to use "old bundles"). But in this case, we'd like to have only the most recent versions in Orbit.
To be explicit we are talking about removing these three at the 0.9.7 level ch.qos.logback.slf4j ch.qos.logback.classic ch.qos.logback.core and these 5 at the 1.6.1 level org.slf4j.api org.slf4j.ext org.slf4j.jcl org.slf4j.jul org.slf4j.log4j They all have replacements at a higher level (1.0.0 or 1.0.3 for the former, and 1.6.4 for the latter). The reason for this aggressive removal, in brief, is that a) it is strongly encouraged not to use the older ones ... they cause complications in builds that are not present when using the newer ones, and b) they are causing problems in our orbit builds, and while we could make our Orbit build more complicated to accommodate them, we would prefer not to do the extra work unless its absolutely required. I checked the Kepler M1 common repository and none of these were in use there. I know that is not a guarantee that it won't effect an individual Kepler project, so do let us know if this quick and sudden change effects you. Please comment in bug 388140 and we can discuss alternatives, if needed. Either restore status quo, have you fetch from old repositories, or ... make our Orbit build more complicated. Thank you,
