Description

httpfs WAR is excluding commons-cli, the same for hadoop-client. The motivation of this exclusion was that because the usage is programmatic there was no need for having commons-cli.

This was true until not long ago but is seem that recent changes in DFSClient are now importing commons-cli classes thus failing DistributedFileSystem class to load if commons-cli is not around.
