How to make Play and Pac4j compatible?

Question

I use Play 2.8 with pac4j. Play 2.8 uses Jackson 2.10, while pac4j-oidc uses Jackson 2.11. 2.10 is therefore evicted and makes Play unhappy:

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonMappingException: Scala module 2.10.5 requires Jackson Databind version >= 2.10.0 and < 2.11.0

I raised an issue to ask pac4j to downgrade to Jackson 2.10 but they refused (which I can understand).

What other alternative do I have (other than shading)?

What's depends on Jackson? Play-json? – Ivan Kurchenko Feb 23 '21 at 11:28 — Ivan Kurchenko, Feb 23 '21 at 11:28
Yes, at least play-json – stackoverflowed Feb 23 '21 at 11:36 — stackoverflowed, Feb 23 '21 at 11:36

The only solution I have found is to add exclude("com.fasterxml.jackson.core", "jackson-databind") to all pac4j dependencies other than play-pac4j. It is likely to produce binary that crash though...
