And why not: DISPLAY the damn license and require the user to type "I do understand the terms of this licence" and click somewhere ( that may also cover the requirements of some of the packages ). Or even better, if it's a GPL license Ruper should require the user to type "I understand that all the software I ship that is bundled with this jar will have to be GPLed". ( and if he types something wrong, he'll have to type the whole thing again :-).Adding dependencies should not be easy. We certainly need a way to indicate to the user that that a jar is a build-time dependency, a runtime required dependency or an optional runtime dependency.
