Understood and agreed. Further, Accumulo's configuration can be easily modified 
to include only the jars which are needed. The default and example 
"general.classpaths" option pulls in a lot, and account for these separate 
2.0.0+ directories. The default value ensures things work most easily out of 
the box a very wide set of circumstances, but a more targeted value for this 
option, which doesn't pollute the classpath certainly seems reasonable and 
appropriate. You certainly don't need to include all these jars for Accumulo to 
work. However, I think that's a slightly different question (how do I configure 
my classpath?) than the one of which to package.
