Description

Application context fails to start on adding io.opentracing.contrib:opentracing-spring-cloud-starter:5.9.0 dependency if the project does not also depend on org.springframework:spring-web. Applications which do not use org.springframework:spring-web dependency are thus not able to use this starter without adding this dependency.

Research direction

Start with reproducer.zip and the dependency setup for io.opentracing.contrib:opentracing-spring-cloud-starter:5.9.0. Trace why application context startup requires org.springframework:spring-web, then verify that an application without spring-web can start while using the starter.
