License violation
-----------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-850
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-850
             Project: JBoss Seam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.1.6.GA
         Environment: any
            Reporter: Petr Ferschmann

JBoss Seam has LGPL license. 
JCaptcha (according to content of jcaptcha-all-1.0-RC3.jar) is GPL.

When running JBoss Seam without jcaptcha I get this NoClassDefFoundError:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/octo/captcha/service/image/ImageCaptchaService
        at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredMethods0(Native Method)
        at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredMethods(Class.java:2427)
        at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredMethods(Class.java:1791)

        at org.jboss.seam.init.Initialization.addComponents(Initialization.java:674)
        at org.jboss.seam.init.Initialization.init(Initialization.java:429)
        at org.jboss.seam.servlet.SeamListener.contextInitialized(SeamListener.java:33)

This mean I can't use Seam without GPL software. 

Solution is to make JCaptcha optional.
