I don't think they're actually meant to be part of the library?\r\n\r\nThe main issue is that these libraries are unavailable on Maven's central repo. In fact xerial/sbt-pack#37 explicitly mentions that the library is not intended to support maven integration. So fresh Maven builds are unable to find the JAR and thus can't finish the build.\r\n\r\nCurrently I'm able to bypass this issue by manually excluding the two libraries:\r\n\r\n```                \r\n                \u003cexclusion\u003e\r\n                    \u003cgroupId\u003eorg.xerial.sbt\u003c/groupId\u003e\r\n                    \u003cartifactId\u003esbt-sonatype\u003c/artifactId\u003e\r\n                \u003c/exclusion\u003e\r\n                \u003cexclusion\u003e\r\n                    \u003cgroupId\u003ecom.jsuereth\u003c/groupId\u003e\r\n                    \u003cartifactId\u003esbt-pgp\u003c/artifactId\u003e\r\n                \u003c/exclusion\u003e\r\n``` \r\n\r\nThis doesn't seem to break anything and disables the warning. Again, my assumption is these two libraries aren't actually used in the Algorithmia code itself, and are only used in the deploy process. Hence, when they are mistakenly included as actual dependencies, maven builds will crash after being unable to find them. But, manually excluding them doesn't cause any problems since the classes aren't actually used.\r\n\r\nI'm not sure if anything is actually wrong here, maybe this is intended. But I would really appreciate a second look since the exclusion workaround is not ideal!","author":{"url":"https://github.com/rococode","@type":"Person","name":"rococode"},"datePublished":"2020-01-07T07:25:34.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/18/algorithmia-java/issues/18"}
