Gradle dependency tree, what does the (*) mean?

I am just wondering what does the (*) mean under the dependency tree for Gradle. I have been searching online and could not find any answers.

+--- org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.2.6 -> 4.5 (*)

    |    +--- org.apache.jena:apache-jena-libs:2.12.1
    |    |    +--- org.apache.jena:jena-tdb:1.1.1
    |    |    |    +--- org.apache.jena:jena-arq:2.12.1
    |    |    |    |    +--- org.apache.jena:jena-core:2.12.1
    |    |    |    |    |    +--- org.slf4j:slf4j-api:1.7.6 -> 1.7.10
    |    |    |    |    |    +--- org.apache.jena:jena-iri:1.1.1
    |    |    |    |    |    |    +--- org.slf4j:slf4j-api:1.7.6 -> 1.7.10
    |    |    |    |    |    |    \--- log4j:log4j:1.2.17
    |    |    |    |    |    +--- xerces:xercesImpl:2.11.0
    |    |    |    |    |    |    \--- xml-apis:xml-apis:1.4.01
    |    |    |    |    |    \--- log4j:log4j:1.2.17
    |    |    |    |    +--- org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.2.6 -> 4.5 (*)
    |    |    |    |    +--- com.github.jsonld-java:jsonld-java:0.5.0
    |    |    |    |    |    +--- com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-core:2.3.3 -> 2.5.1
    |    |    |    |    |    +--- com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind:2.3.3 -> 2.5.1 (*)
    |    |    |    |    |    \--- org.slf4j:jcl-over-slf4j:1.7.7 -> 1.7.10 (*)

(*) - dependencies omitted (listed previously)

Should be displayed under your dependency tree.

The dependencies of the marked dependency are omitted for readability because they were already listed higher up in the dependency graph output.

Also,

(c) - dependency constraint
(n) - Not resolved

Dependencies with the same coordinates that can occur multiple times in the graph are omitted and indicated by an asterisk(*). Dependencies that had to undergo conflict resolution render the requested and selected version separated by a right arrow character(->).
