These form of conflicts must be guarded in a test(suite) that is part of WildFly release criteria.

Thanks James! I've sent a PR to restore the previous version.

I'll be checking some more cross-project dependency requirements next weeek.

It looks like it came in as part of
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-7908. I'm personally not a big fan of
these sweeping version updates like this for this exact reason. We've had
issues with this type of thing before and I do think we need a better
approach.

IMO we can definitely downgrade this. I also see no other modules that
depend on it either.

Hi all,

I just noticed that the Apache Avro version included in WildFly was
upgraded to 1.8.1.

This breaks Hibernate Search. It wasn't caught by automated
integration tests as this aspect wasn't covered by integration tests
within the wildfly codebase - we have them within Hibernate.

A quick grep on the module definitions doesn't reveal any other user,
and "git blame" seems to suggest it was updated just for the sake of
updating some components.. so I'm guessing there is no other
stackeholder I should align with?

1# Could we please revert it to 1.7.6, which is what Hibernate Search
requires?

Alternatively we'll need some ad-hoc coding on Hibernate Search and a
new version respin - with all associated risks - just for the sake of
updating this.

2# What can we do to prevent such things in the future?

I can of course contribute some more integration tests but it's never
going to be enough: there will always be more tests "upstream". Could
we rather agree on some improved communication process when you all
consider updating an indirect dependency?

Thanks,
Sanne
