The general idea is that the NOTICE/LICENSE pair of an artifact should cover all the bits included inside that artifact. If giraph.jar doesn't embed dep1 and dep2, then there's no need to mention them in the NOTICE/LICENSE pair of that jar. Instead, since you are including dep1 and dep2 inside giraph-bin.tar.gz, they should be covered by the NOTICE/LICENSE pair of the tarball. If you look inside the jackrabbit-standalone jar, you'll notice that it actually contains all the external components mentioned in the NOTICE/LICENSE files.
