--- Comment #3 from Markus Koschany <[email protected]> ---
I'm a member of the Debian Java team and we maintain jmeter for Debian. I have
reported this bug because we cannot build jmeter without build-depending on
commons-httpclient. However we would like to remove commons-httpclient from
Debian because it is unmaintained and its upstream developer strongly
recommends to switch to httpcomponents-client. Since commons-httpclient was
affected by multiple security vulnerabilities in the recent past, we would like
to reduce the maintenance burden.

We would prefer that jmeter no longer requires to build-depend on
commons-httpclient.
