Problem with dependency update.

[namespaceahr]

Hello everyone, I am trying to update this dependency to 1.18.0-alpha. It seems the latest version is 1.16.0-alpha. The main problem with v1.16.0-alpha is that it brings other dependencies versions to 1.16.0-alpha. So I can't update other dependencies. Is there any changes in the artifact? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

io.opentelemetry.instrumentation
opentelemetry-otlp-exporter-starter
1.16.0-alpha

Hey @namespaceahr ,
Since version 1.17.0, the OTLP exporter is now included in the opentelemetry-spring-boot-starter module. You can safely remove the opentelemetry-otlp-exporter-starter from your build file.
