Hi,

The problem would be that you depend on a outdated "older version" of POI
indirectly.

One solution would be to have a ooxml "parent jar" with that class which is a
dependency of every ooxml package. Not sure if it is worth the trouble.

Another solution is (I am not sure) to add it as "provided" dependency in Maven
central (without version!?). But this would not really help users that want to
use the ooxml jars alone.

OSGI is very picky, but I have no idea... I think it already complains if
multiple JAR files use the same package name. In Lucene we refused to create
OSGI packages, we dropped support for that completely (especially as OSGI does
not work with Java's SPI).
