Tim Allison commented on TIKA-4109:
-----------------------------------
I think jsoup (https://jsoup.org/) would be the natural replacement. It will
take some work to exchange the two parsers and get equivalent results, but it
should be possible.
> Remove use of EOL component TagSoup 1.2.1 from tika-parsers-standard-package
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-4109
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-4109
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.8.0
> Reporter: Sandeep Kulkarni
> Priority: Major
>
> tika-parsers-standard-package has dependency of
> *org.ccil.cowan.tagsoup:tagsoup:jar:1.2.1.* It is getting detected EOL as
> there is no new version since 10+ yrs by source code scanners.
> That project is not maintained any more and the source code for it also not
> available anymore. Homepage is also not reachable:
> [http://home.ccil.org/~cowan/XML/tagsoup/.|http://home.ccil.org/~cowan/XML/tagsoup/]
> There is a fork created on Github:
> [https://github.com/zmokhtar/TagSoup-Webs.] But there does not seems to be
> any further activity there as well.
> Is it possible to remove the use of TagSoup 1.2.1 by using alternates? If I
> was aware of one, I would have suggested myself.
