I am using Jenkins 1.578 and my plugin works on guava-17.0.jar.
In Jenkins lib folder we have guava-11.0.1.jar.
Scenario 1.
On Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit : I replaced the 11.0.0 jar with 17.0 version and my plugin and Jenkins both works fine.
Scenario 2.
On Linux x86_64 I replaced the 11.0.0 jar with 17.0 version and my plugin works fine.
but after successfully running the job on Jenkins, I get error while opening the output console and I have to view the output on Plain text option.
