The hibernate-entitymanager artifact is unnecessary in the 5.2.x release family and is still just an empty place holder allowing 5.x configurations to continue to work with the 5.2.x release family temporarily. That aside, I don't see any issues with fetching dependencies from a gradle/maven perspective. Just upgraded 2 projects here which use both build tools and the DOM4J dependencies were pulled in just fine after upgrading from 5.1.0.Final to 5.2.1.Final. Sure it isn't a build configuration issue? |
