Thanks Ajay. Good catch on jts from vivisolutions. We don’t need it for Falcon as it is only needed in solr plugin and we don’t use it.
FALCON-1858 – I think we still support BerkeleyDB but we no longer package it. So, we can call out that Berkeley db jar is no longer packaged and point to the documentation on updating the startup properties as well as installing the jar for customer use. It is ok to call it as a incompatible change if it helps On 7/26/16, 4:16 AM, "Ajay Yadava" <ajayyad...@apache.org> wrote: Balu, Venkat, I haven't finished my checks but it seems I have hit a blocker.
