Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  Files are provided by optional dependencies
Comment by Jonas Witschel (diabonas) - Thursday, 17 October 2019, 21:14 GMT
The two files are provided by the (correctly specified) optional dependencies bcprov and java-commons-lang, resp. These don't need to be required dependencies because they are not necessary for every workflow (e.g. if you don't use encrypted PDF files, you won't need bcprov). If you attempt to perform an operation that uses these files, you will get a "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError", in which case you will need to install the necessary optional dependency.
