>
> The current pom includes com.google.inject:guice with the default transitive dependency of com.google.guava:guava. Guava has declared several dependencies, which are not needed at runtime. Only com.google.guava:failureaccess is needed.
> The proposal is first to add com.google.guava:guava to the excludes of guice. Second guava and failureaccess shall be added as direct dependencies.
> This has two advantages: Downstream projects only get the needed dependencies and the version of guava can be independently set.
> The runtime dependencies for Guava are explained in the last section of the  [README|https://github.com/google/guava/tree/v30.1] "Important Warnings" #3
