Re: Inconsistency in deprecation of EntityEnclosingMethod.CONTENT_LENGTH_CHUNKED?

Bill,

This is indeed a problem and it has already been fixed in SVN trunk

http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34459

The fix will be included in the coming RC3 release. Meanwhile consider
using the latest nightlies:
