    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-15144?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15645496#comment-15645496 ] 

Robert Kanter commented on HIVE-15144:
--------------------------------------

This is also a problem for the Oozie release we're currently working on.  See OOZIE-2723.
Oozie is either going to have to hold the release until Hive has a release with this fix or it's going to have to just exclude the dependency and hope things mostly work without it.

> CAN APACHE PRODUCTS INCLUDE WORKS LICENSED UNDER THE JSON LICENSE?
> No. As of 2016-11-03 this has been moved to the 'Category X' license list. Prior to this, use of the JSON Java library was allowed. See Debian's page for a list of alternatives.
