---------------------------------
Summary: Active dependency management for Google Guice / Google
Guava
Key: MNG-7068
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7068
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Dependencies
Affects Versions: 3.6.3
Reporter: Boris Unckel
The current pom includes com.google.inject:guice with the default transitive
dependency of com.google.guava:guava. Guava has declared several dependencies,
which are not needed at runtime. Only com.google.guava:failureaccess is needed.
The proposal is first to add com.google.guava:guava to the excludes of guice.
Second guava and failureaccess shall be added as direct dependencies.
This has two advantages: Downstream projects only get the needed dependencies
and the version of guava can be independently set.
The runtime dependencies for Guava are explained in the last section of the
[README|https://github.com/google/guava/tree/v30.1] "Important Warnings" #3
