Adding spring-boot-starter-data-jpa to spring-boot:2.0.0.RC1 breaks the application

See original GitHub issue

Hi, it seems like there’s some sort of incompatibility or bug related to hibernate managed dependency. The managed version of hibernate-core is 5.2.12.Final but the application doesn’t start when I add spring-boot-starter-data-jpa dependency with the following error:

But if I just override the hibernate’s managed version it works perfectly. I override it by adding:

<dependency>
	<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
	<artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
	<version>5.2.11.Final</version>
</dependency>

Also, if an override of the Hibernate version fixes the problem, perhaps Hibernate 5.2.12 is corrupted in your local repository. You can use mvn dependency:purge-local-repository for that.
