thanks for the reply, but that unfortunately does not help. to make my problem easily reproducible:
creating an empty directory, put just a build.sbt file with the following content into it: name := "kafka-dependency-test" scalaVersion := "2.8.2" libraryDependencies += "org.apache.kafka" % "kafka_2.8.2" % "0.8.0-beta1" intransitive() and run sbt update gives me the following error: sbt.ResolveException: unresolved dependency: org.apache.kafka#kafka_2.8.2;0.8.0-beta1: null name not allowed sbt sbt-version gives me the following: [info] Loading global plugins from /Users/lorenz/.sbt/plugins [info] Set current project to kafka-dependency-test (in build file:/Users/lorenz/software/kafka_dependency_test/) [info] 0.12.4 nobody else having these problems? regards lorenz On Aug 20, 2013, at 3:15 PM, Joe Stein <crypt...@gmail.com> wrote: > you need to put intransitive() at the end so it ignores dependencies that > are defined to be ignored in maven > > so your line would be > > libraryDependencies += "org.apache.kafka" % "kafka_2.9.2" % "0.8.0-beta1" > intransitive() > > /******************************************* > Joe Stein > Founder, Principal Consultant > Big Data Open Source Security LLC > http://www.stealth.ly > Twitter: @allthingshadoop <http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop> > ********************************************/ > > > On Tue, Aug 20, 2013 at 2:48 AM, Lorenz Knies <m...@l1024.org> wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> i am having problems using kafka as a dependency in sbt. >> >> with this simple build.sbt: >> >> name := "kafka-dependency-test" >> >> scalaVersion := "2.9.2" >> >> libraryDependencies += "org.apache.kafka" % "kafka_2.9.2" % "0.8.0-beta1" >> >> >> when i do >> >> sbt update >> >> i get the following error: >> >> sbt.ResolveException: unresolved dependency: >> org.apache.kafka#kafka_2.9.2;0.8.0-beta1: null name not allowed >> >> i am using sbt 0.12.4 but also tried other versions with no luck >> >> looks like the ivy implementation ignores the org and name attributes for >> the zookeeper dependency in the custom inline xml included in kafkas >> Build.scala >> >> anybody else having these problems and maybe some advice for a >> solution/workaround? >> >> >> regards >> >> lorenz >> >>
