4 months ago Hi Bill,
Unfortunately Oleksandr appears to have abandoned the acme client project. I had forked it and had been making some changes to add some convenience for my own usage and asked Oleksandr to incorporate them. My pull request was ignored and as I have had no response, I decided to release my changes on my fork instead. You can download them here.

One of my changes was to not pack all the dependencies into the same jar and instead place them in a seperate lib dir. This may help your situation as all the dependencies remain intact without stripping their meta data. I tested jdeps (Java 11) on my build of the acme-client jar, it produced a report without crashing.
I hope this helps.
Cheers, Darian

I downloaded acme_client on a system that did not have software such as bouncycastle installed, and jdeps crashed with an error about a provider not being found. I tried an initial test, just getting the agreement URL from lets encrypt, and that worked just fine.
I've been considering using acme_client.jar in a Docker container, using jllink to reduce the size of the JRE, and wanted to use jdeps to find what modules to pass to jlink.
Documentation with just a list of the appropriate Java modules would be very helpful, at least until jlink is fixed. I was testing using Java 17. With version 17.0.9 of jdeps, the command jdeps acme_client.jar produced the following stack trace: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.module.FindException: Module org.bouncycastle.provider not found, required by org.bouncycastle.pkix at java.base/java.lang.module.Resolver.findFail(Resolver.java:893) at java.base/java.lang.module.Resolver.resolve(Resolver.java:192) at java.base/java.lang.module.Resolver.resolve(Resolver.java:141) at java.base/java.lang.module.Configuration.resolve(Configuration.java:421) at java.base/java.lang.module.Configuration.resolve(Configuration.java:255) at jdk.jdeps/com.sun.tools.jdeps.JdepsConfiguration$Builder.build(JdepsConfiguration.java:564) at jdk.jdeps/com.sun.tools.jdeps.JdepsTask.buildConfig(JdepsTask.java:603) at jdk.jdeps/com.sun.tools.jdeps.JdepsTask.run(JdepsTask.java:557) at jdk.jdeps/com.sun.tools.jdeps.JdepsTask.run(JdepsTask.java:533) at jdk.jdeps/com.sun.tools.jdeps.Main.main(Main.java:49)
jdeps options to suppress warnings or errors did not help.
