Description

Specifically, com.google.apis:google-api-services-datastore-protobuf depends on a very old version of the suite of Google API libraries. It is by maven's dependency resolution that these are generally overridden by other dependencies on the new versions.

It is easy (and I have done it) to get things rearranged so that it pulls in the very old API clients. They should be suppressed and provided in their latest form for compatibility with the rest of the SDK that is up to date.
