I would only use 5.0 for finding and removing HC deprecations from Solr,
I would not commit an update to an unreleased version of any dependency,
even if such a change would compile, and in this case it definitely will
NOT work.

My experimentation with simply marking all deprecated code use as an
error revealed over 3000 uses of deprecated code.  As for HC, we use it
in such a way that deprecation removal will be very much a nontrivial
effort.  I'm not sure I actually have the time or understanding to
complete the work.

Thanks,
Shawn

Yes, it does.

You should not be using 5.0 unless you intent to participate in
development of HttpClient. The trunk is currently unstable and I have no
idea how long it may take for it to get stable enough for a GA release.
Please use 4.5.x branch for now. It will still have all deprecated
functionality intact.
