I'm having trouble getting the x-pack plugin 5.0.0-alpha5 from Maven to download using SBT. I added the Maven repository ( "elasticsearch-releases" at "[https://maven.elasticsearch.org/releases](https://maven.elasticsearch.org/releases)"), but still no luck. Here is the output from SBT.

```auto

The 5.0.0-alpha4 dependency downloads just fine, but I can't find the XPackTransportClient class in it. I'm following the XPack documentation at [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/v5.0.0-alpha5-docs/java-clients.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/v5.0.0-alpha5-docs/java-clients.html)

Hi Robert,

The XPackTransportClient is new in alpha 5. It looks like there is a bug in the generated pom file for alpha5:

```
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.elasticsearch.plugin</groupId>
  <artifactId>transport-netty4-client-client</artifactId>
  <version>5.0.0-alpha5</version>
  <scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>

```

That dependency should just be `transport-netty4-client`, which is published to maven central. In your build, can you manually exclude the bad dependency and add one for the correct one, which would be (for maven):

```
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.elasticsearch.plugin</groupId>
  <artifactId>transport-netty4-client</artifactId>
  <version>5.0.0-alpha5</version>
  <scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
```

Hey Jaymode,

I'm using Scala; here is my build.sbt file:

```auto
resolvers += "elasticsearch-releases" at "https://maven.elasticsearch.org/releases"

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  "com.amazonaws" % "aws-java-sdk" % "1.9.8",
  "com.jcraft" % "jsch" % "0.1.53",
  "org.elasticsearch.plugin" % "transport-netty4-client" % "5.0.0-alpha5",
  "org.elasticsearch.plugin" % "x-pack" % "5.0.0-alpha5",
  "org.elasticsearch.client" % "transport" % "5.0.0-alpha5"
)

```

I still meet the same error. Is there a way to ignore a sub-dependency then? Or can we update the .pom file?

maybe try swapping the x-pack dependency line with:

```
"org.elasticsearch.plugin" % "x-pack" % "5.0.0-alpha5" exclude("org.elasticsearch.plugin", "transport-netty4-client-client")
```
