I picked up jakarta-commons-httpclient in an attempt to keep ant-contrib building. That proved impossible, so I removed all dependencies on ant-contrib from packages I maintain instead. That means I don't need jakarta-commons-httpclient, so I am orphaning it again.
Honestly anything that requires jakarta-commons-httpclient should be blacklisted. This library has been EOL and unmaintained for a *decade* and contains all manner of problems.
This package should be retired and dependents should be ported to httpcomponents-client or retired also.
