Hi Eduard,
premise: I never used C2.2 in production - I've jumped from C2.1 to C3 - 
so I might say bullshits :-)

> Some offtopic, but I suggest this info can be useful for others. We build our application based on Apache Cocoon 2.2. We also use Apache FOP version 1.1 and have our own block for it. Unfortunately there are some inconsistence in maven dependencies from FOP-Cocoon point of view.

I don't have any culprit about this: just try and see how it is going...

Just override this dependency in your project's POM file and you should 
be fine.

I see the same solution here, by tweaking your own project's POM file(s).

Please report if you find any significant library incompatibility with 
either FOP/Avalon and Batik.
