maven same transitive dependency but different version

I am running into a problem where I have the following 2 dependencies:

org.apache.felix » org.apache.felix.utils » 1.6.0

and

com.github.rotty3000 » phidias » 0.3.2

they both have transitive dependency on org.osgi.core, felix depends on version 4.1.0 and phidias depends on version 5.0.0

we need version 5.0.0 for our code to correctly compile

if I put my dependencies as:

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
        <artifactId>org.apache.felix.utils</artifactId>
        <version>1.6.0</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.github.rotty3000</groupId>
        <artifactId>phidias</artifactId>
        <version>0.3.2</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

maven automatically gets version 4.1.0 causing compile error. If I put phidias on top of felix it would get version 5.0.0 and compile fine.

we want to order the dependencies in alphabetical order so felix will go on top, is there anyway to force osgi.core to resolve the 5.0.0 version?

Thanks!

<exclude> it from both of those dependency

add org.osgi.core's required dependency at version 5.0.0 in your pom.xml as an explicit dependency with your required version

make sure the two libraries you are consuming are runtime compatible with 5.0.0
