SBT dependency on opennlp-tools

If I have

libraryDependencies += "org.apache.opennlp" % "opennlp-tools" % "1.5.2-incubating"

in build.sbt, I get an error:

[warn]  module not found: jwnl#jwnl;1.3.3

The reason is clearly https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENNLP-510, but replacing the dependency with

libraryDependencies += "org.cleartk" % "cleartk-opennlp-tools" % "0.10.2"

(which excludes JWNL), as suggested in the comments there, still produces the same error. Is there a way to avoid this problem?

Solution

  • "To exclude certain transitive dependencies of a dependency, use the excludeAll or exclude methods..." — see http://www.scala-sbt.org/release/docs/Detailed-Topics/Library-Management.html for further details.
