john caron commented on TIKA-766:
---------------------------------
Ive attempted to get any LGPL code out of netcdf-java version 4.3.11, which
will be released next week.
Weve also done more work on mavenizing it, hopefully that will work for you.
In terms of size, I can cut it down some, but not much (maybe down to 3 M?). If
you only want netcdf-3, that could be very small. But if you want all those
other file formats, that gets pretty big. Both GRIB and BUFR are now in
optional jars.

> Trim down the NetCDF dependency
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-766
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-766
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: packaging, parser
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
> Priority: Minor
>
> As noted in TIKA-763, the NetCDF dependency contains a few LGPL classes that
> we should get rid of, ideally without the workaround added for TIKA-763.
> Additionally, with 4.2MB the NetCDF jar is pretty large and includes lots of
> stuff that isn't really related to parsing NetCDF and HDF files.
> It would be nice if the NetCDF project could produce a separately packaged
> read-only parser library that only contains the stuff needed by Tika.
