Description

With Guava being a compile-scope dependency, we currently leak out a dependency to Guava 15 to any user of Oak. In particular, downstream projects might use Guava without having explicitly declared a dependency, and will get a narrow version scope (that is, for now 15).

If we change the scope to "provided", downstream users who do use Guava will have to declare their dependency explicitly.

Like that:

   <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
          <instructions>
            <Import-Package>
              com.google.common.*;version="[15.0,21)",
              *
            </Import-Package>
          </instructions>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

The current recommended version range can be found in oak/oak-parent.xml as "guava.osgi.import".

When deploying Oak, make sure that a matching version of Guava is present in the class path (for instance, for now: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.guava/guava/15.0)
