I don't know anything about Android development and don't really know exactly what they're talking
about there.

Xerces and some of the other low-level XML-related dependencies are defined with 'runtime' scope, so
it's not clear to me that that would cause a problem like this.  But like I said, I know nothing of
Android development.

If the Xerces dependency *is* an issue, then it's likely you need to do something with respect to
some or all of the 5 similar low-level XML processing dependencies: serializer, xalan, xercesImpl,
xml-apis, xml-resolver.

That's all the advice I can offer, without more info on exactly what class(es) it's referring to.
