Chesnay Schepler created FLINK-16172:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Add baseline set of allowed unused dependencies
                 Key: FLINK-16172
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-16172
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Build System
            Reporter: Chesnay Schepler
            Assignee: Chesnay Schepler
             Fix For: 1.11.0


We define several dependencies in our root pom, usually for logging (e.g., log4j), testing (e.g., junit) or build purposes (e.g., force-shading), to reduce noise in downstream modules.

These commonly show up as unused, because they may actually not be used (like junit in uber modules), are used indirectly (log4j implementation) or don't contain any classes (force-shading).

We should define a baseline for unused dependencies that we allow.
