Scott Carey commented on KAFKA-854: ----------------------------------- Also, upgrading log4j means that all of the ugly bits with: {code} //The issue is going from log4j 1.2.14 to 1.2.15, the developers added some features which required // some dependencies on various sun and javax packages. override def ivyXML = <dependencies> <exclude module="javax"/> <exclude module="jmxri"/> <exclude module="jmxtools"/> <exclude module="mail"/> <exclude module="jms"/> </dependencies> {ocde} can go away, they made all of the funky dependencies "system" "provided", or "optional" so they are not transitively pulled in (as they should have been to begin with). > Upgrade dependencies for 0.8 > ---------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-854 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-854 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.8 > Reporter: Scott Carey > Attachments: 0001-KAFKA-854-Upgrade-Deps-to-latest.patch > > > Many of the dependencies that Kafka 0.8 uses are old.
