Description

On Guava 22.0 or higher, Avatica build gives various license errors:

> Task :tck:getLicenses FAILED

Build calcite-avatica FAILURE reason:                                
    Execution failed for task ':tck:getLicenses':
        LICENSE-like files are missing

            at org.gradle.api.internal.project.taskfactory.StandardTaskAction.doExecute(StandardTaskAction.java:49)

JDK does not seem to be a factor: occurs on JDK 8, 11, 14.

The workaround is to disable various license-checking tasks on the command-line:

 ./gradlew clean build -x :tck:getLicenses -x :tck:license -x :tck:licenseCopySpec -x :standalone-server:getLicenses -x :standalone-server:license -x :standalone-server:licenseCopySpec

I had expected to be able to change Guava version using -Dguava.version=22.0 on the gradle command line. But I had to edit gradle.properties.
