Description

The META-INF/LICENSE-bundled file in xtable-aws-0.3.0-incubating-bundled.jar contains two license entries for `org.javassist:javassist:3.25.0-GA`.

The javassist library is dual licensed but when we distribute it as part of our binaries we should explicitly pick the license that we use so our LICENSE file should only list it once.

Research direction

Start by inspecting META-INF/LICENSE-bundled in xtable-aws-0.3.0-incubating-bundled.jar and compare the two org.javassist:javassist:3.25.0-GA entries. Trace the packaging input that produces this file and select one license entry; done means the bundled LICENSE lists javassist only once with the chosen license.
