I am having troubles with the dependencies which are pulled in automaticall

I am having troubles with the dependencies which are pulled in automatically by your addon-on. in order to keep my program running i need to import it this way:

<dependency>
           <groupId>com.mlottmann.VStepper</groupId>
           <artifactId>VStepper</artifactId>
           <version>1.0.7</version>
           <exclusions>
               <exclusion>
                   <groupId>com.vaadin</groupId>
                   <artifactId>vaadin</artifactId>
               </exclusion>
               <exclusion>
                   <groupId>com.vaadin</groupId>
                   <artifactId>flow-component-demo-helpers</artifactId>
               </exclusion>
           </exclusions>
       </dependency>

otherwise my whole application does not work anymore because it pulls in the dependencies described in your pom file. (vaadin instead of only vaadin-core, demo-helper plugin etc.)

maybe setting the scope for the dependencies on compile only would solve this?

I forgot to clean up my maven dependencies. I changed the import to vaadin-core and the scope of flow-component-demo-helpers to test. Hope this helps. Please let me know if you still have issues
