Github user greghogan commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2664 @rmetzger, I have not been able to improve on the current configuration. `useTransitiveFiltering` seems to work as the inverse from the plugin documentation (true prevents transitive dependencies from being filtered), but project artifacts are still ignored as transitive dependencies. This implementation is only including so there shouldn't be the same risk of failing to exclude an unneeded dependency. How would creating separate assembly descriptors be beneficial?
