I'm newish to SBT and am not sure what to do about a rather scary warning from the evicted task: [warn] There may be incompatibilities among your library dependencies; run 'evicted' to see detailed eviction warnings.
The full task output is...
sbt:Sprout> evicted
[info] Updating ...
[info] Done updating.
[warn] There may be incompatibilities among your library dependencies; run 'evicted' to see detailed eviction warnings.
[warn] Found version conflict(s) in library dependencies; some are suspected to be binary incompatible:
[warn] * org.scala-lang.modules:scala-xml_2.12:1.1.0 is selected over 1.0.6
[warn] +- org.json4s:json4s-xml_2.12:3.6.3 (depends on 1.1.0)
[warn] +- org.scalatra:scalatra_2.12:2.6.5 (depends on 1.0.6)
[warn] +- com.typesafe.play:twirl-api_2.12:1.3.13 (depends on 1.0.6)
[info] Here are other dependency conflicts that were resolved:

"suspected binary incompatible" sound serious. Is it?
Is there just some exclude that I can tag onto the dependencies to get the dependencies in agreement as to what the correct versions are?
The SBT dependencies are like...
libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
"org.scalatra" %% "scalatra" % ScalatraVersion exclude("org.slf4j","slf4j-api"),
"org.scalatra" %% "scalatra-scalatest" % ScalatraVersion % "test",
"org.slf4j" % "slf4j-api" % "1.7.26",
"ch.qos.logback" % "logback-classic" % "1.2.3" % "runtime",
"org.eclipse.jetty" % "jetty-webapp" % "9.4.9.v20180320" % "container",
"javax.servlet" % "javax.servlet-api" % "3.1.0" % "provided",
"org.scalatra" %% "scalatra-json" % ScalatraVersion,
"org.json4s" %% "json4s-jackson" % "3.6.5",
)
Ideally we should resolve evection warnings instead of override, if at all possible, due to potentially introducing hard-to-trace bugs. In this case it is possible if we are willing to drop scalatra and json4s-jackson versions to 2.6.4 and 3.5.2, respectively, like so:
val ScalatraVersion = "2.6.4"
libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
"org.scalatra" %% "scalatra" % ScalatraVersion exclude("org.slf4j","slf4j-api"),
"org.scalatra" %% "scalatra-scalatest" % ScalatraVersion % "test",
"org.slf4j" % "slf4j-api" % "1.7.26",
"ch.qos.logback" % "logback-classic" % "1.2.3" % "runtime",
"javax.servlet" % "javax.servlet-api" % "3.1.0" % "provided",
"org.scalatra" %% "scalatra-json" % ScalatraVersion,
"org.json4s" %% "json4s-jackson" % "3.5.2",
)
