Attila Simon commented on FLUME-3132:
-------------------------------------

Hi [~fszabo],
Thank you for looking into this. Indeed it is included as a transitive 
dependency via hadoop-common only. As long as we understand the exact impact 
I'm fine with either case. Within our company we ship flume with a slightly 
enhanced hadoop-common:2.6.0 so I cannot help you saying that 2.7.0 will be 
fine for sure so that has to be heavily verified. By writing this it looks like 
that upgrading hadoop-common would be a longer and separate task thus should 
deserve a separate jira (and close this one once that has been resolved). I 
guess impact of exclusion has a pretty limited scope so sounds easier to me, 
but essentially it is your call which way to go.
