The problem are transitive dependencies. Consider this example:

My-Project
 | -> A -> B -> C 1.2
 | -> D -> C 2.0

In this case my project depends directly on A and D. A depends on B which
depends on C in version 1.2. D depends on C in version 2.0. In this case I
have no control over the dependencies to C but my project will be broken at
run time, because C 1.2 and C 2.0 can not exist at once in the same
classpath.
