Lior Zeno commented on FLUME-2921:
----------------------------------
Flume ships all of its deps, that is true. Elasticsearch is an optional
dependency,therefore it is not shipped together and we don't have conflicting
guava versions in the same classpath.
In addition, we had the same problem with the previous release, users that
wanted to use this sink had to copy elasticsearch along with its deps to the
library dir. This caused collisions of both Guava and Jackson. In this case, if
the user wants to use elasticsearch alongside another sink with colliding
versions, he has to deal with it via shading. I find it completely reasonable,
as we cannot ship shaded versions for each dependency we use.
> Support Elasticsearch 2.0+
