Description

After the SLING-10956 changes, launching the Starter with the README provided instructions while using the v1.1.28 or later feature launcher does not work anymore.

For example,

$ java -jar target/dependency/org.apache.sling.feature.launcher.jar -f target/slingfeature-tmp/feature-oak_tar.json
Error: Unable to initialize main class org.apache.sling.feature.launcher.impl.Main
Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/cli/ParseException

 

Also, the start goal of the feature-launcher-maven-plugin fails with the same exception when paired with a featureLauncherVersion of 1.1.28 or later.
