Cannot compile with info.picocli:picocli-spring-boot-starter dependency

[remal]

I'm using info.picocli:picocli-spring-boot-starter:4.6.0 as a Gradle dependency.

Looks like that after fixing Gradle warnings info.picocli:picocli:4.6.0 transitive dependency became runtime and its classes can't be used at compile-time.

picocli/picocli-spring-boot-starter/build.gradle

Lines 19 to 20 in 572e05f

	implementation rootProject
	implementation "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter:$springBootVersion"

I suppose api should be used instead of implementation, as Gradle treats implementation as runtime only dependencies.

Take a look: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/info.picocli/picocli-spring-boot-starter/4.6.0

I suggest changing this:

picocli/picocli-spring-boot-starter/build.gradle

Lines 19 to 20 in 572e05f

	implementation rootProject
	implementation "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter:$springBootVersion"

... to:

 api     rootProject 
 api     "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter:$springBootVersion" 

This change should fix the issue.

Thank you for raising this!
This is fixed in the 4.6.1 release.
