I have the following MAVEN2 dependencies: com.google.gwt gwt-servlet 1.4.60 runtime com.google.gwt gwt-user 1.4.60 provided Given this, I would expect that only gwt-user is placed in my module dependencies classpath. However, both are added to my classpath, and gwt-servlet is even added befor gwt-user. This results in edit-time GWT errors ( XX is not present in the JRE emulation library)
