🚨 If you're using http4k 5.8.3.0 or above, we recommend upgrading to 5.8.5.1 🚨
Version 5.8.3.0 included a change to Gradle configuration which caused http4k modules published to Maven central to declare extra transitive dependencies (it pulls some test-related dependencies while API ones may be treated as optional).
For most use cases, this won't cause issues beyond having things in your classpath that won't be used, but we recommend upgrading to the latest version (5.8.5.1) that fixes this issue.
Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience.
