Resolution: Fixed
> Upgrade RocksDB dependency to legally acceptable version
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-5977
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5977
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: streams
> Affects Versions: 0.10.0.0
> Reporter: Stevo Slavic
> Assignee: Guozhang Wang
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 1.0.0
>
>
> RocksDB 5.5.5+ seems to be legally acceptable. For more info see
> - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-303 and
> - https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-x
> Even latest trunk of Apache Kafka depends on older RocksDB
> https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/gradle/dependencies.gradle#L67
> If I'm not mistaken, this makes all current Apache Kafka 0.10+ releases not
> legally acceptable Apache products.
> Please consider upgrading the dependency. If possible please include the
> change in Apache Kafka 1.0.0 release, if not also in patch releases of older
> still supported 0.x Apache Kafka branches.
