[mvn_dependency_tree.txt](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/16466175/mvn_dependency_tree.txt) Hi @lvyankui This is the dependency tree with this change and it would be a bit cleaner practice to exclude 1.19 versions which are shown in dependency tree as...

@zhangbutao Is this PR going to go in , does this affect the upgrade of guava in hive?
