Project does not compile once kolobok dependency is added

[nick2911]

I added this dependency in my project
<dependency> <groupId>com.github.ukman</groupId> <artifactId>kolobok</artifactId> <version>0.1.5</version> <scope>compile</scope> </dependency>

and tried to compile it.
I don't know why it started looking for other artifacts and says:

Could not resolve dependencies for project com.myartifact:mygroupId:jar:1.0.0: The following artifacts could not be resolved: groupid:rt:jar:1.8, com.sun:tools:jar:1.8, org.apache.struts:struts2-core:jar:1.3.10: Could not find artifact groupid:rt:jar:1.8 at specified path /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/lib/rt.jar

The compilation error goes away when I add the following exclusions:

            <exclusions>
                <exclusion>
                <groupId>com.sun</groupId>
                <artifactId>tools</artifactId>
            </exclusion>
            <exclusion>
                <groupId>groupid</groupId>
                <artifactId>rt</artifactId>
            </exclusion>
        </exclusions>

But why do I have to do this in the first place?

Yeah I faced the same issue.

@nick2911 rt.jar seems part of java 8 and you're probably running this with java 11. This library seems does not support java 11 yet.
