File Name Filtering causing False Positives

[JAlexoid]

Filtering contents of UberJar by filename causes false positives.

As an example, if the I were to filter out all fasterxml jars from uber jar I would add a filter for startsWith("jackson"), but that yields false positives. As an example Jackson Databind OpenAPI library.

Without artifact data access this also yields unpredictable results, when upgrades happen.

Thanks for the report. Could you provide reproduction steps so we can reproduce your problem on our computers?

Please see this repo https://github.com/JAlexoid/sample-sbt-assembly-failure

When you run sbt clean assembly the Uber jar excludes "org.openapitools" % "jackson-databind-nullable" as well. I need to filter out only FasterXML Jackson libraries(all of them), but OpenAPI libraries should be preserved.

The filtering happens on the artifactId, rather than on group and artifact IDs.

This is not detectable until runtime.

SBT Assembly needs ability to filter on dependency metadata, not just filename.
