It seems like refreshVersions is using an older version of apache's HttpClient, since it's causing a clash with versions Google's Jib tool... it might be worth it to upgrade...

refreshVersions isn't directly depending on that, but it looks like the GCS library from Google is.
See <https://github.com/jmfayard/refreshVersions/issues/361>

It looks like we'll need to come up with a way to not directly depend on it. I wish it was simpler…

A temporary workaround seems to be to put this in settings.gradle.kts:
```plugins {
    id("com.google.cloud.tools.jib") version "3.1.1" apply false
    id("de.fayard.refreshVersions") version "0.10.1"
}```

Yes, I think it'd be more helpful in the issue comments :wink:

Added. But it's a hard-hit, it took me a whole day of work to find the culprit... and that issue didn't pop up in any of my google searches. I think maybe it should go in the release notes...

At least until it gets fixed. Jib is a pretty important plugin for those deploying to k8s.

Where did you look at the release notes? GitHub releases, website or CHANGELOG.md on the main branch?

I think on the site. I usually pay attention to announcements on slack like: <https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/CP5659EL9/p1620988947036100> and go to those links to see if I should update

Aaaah, that's zillions of channels :sweat_smile:

I'd prefer to find a workaround that we can implement in refreshVersions this week

If you have an idea, please comment in this issue, I'm keeping an eye on it.

FYI, if you know which transitive dependency is the culprit exactly, we can set it explicitly so there's no `NoClassDefFoundError` because of the version brough by GCS

Not for everything... only certain deps :blush:. For others I look at refreshVersions and look at the more dangerous deps.

refreshVersions doesn't come out so often, so it's easier with the channel.

The Apache http client that the google client depends on is the culprit.

Wow, they would benefit from having refreshVersions!
