1.18 NoClassDefFoundError on gradle implementation

[matezz]

Hi,
On 1.18, when I add dependency to my build.gradle, everything seem to work fine. IDE properly indexes library, no errors. Just when I run runClient or runServer task, after a while it throws me error:

My implementation script:

dependencies {
    minecraft 'net.minecraftforge:forge:1.18-38.0.16'
    implementation 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.8.9'
    implementation 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpasyncclient:4.1.4'
    implementation 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpcore:4.4.1.5'
}

Forge version: 1.18-38.0.16
Gradlew version: 7.3
JDK: Oracle OpenJDK 17

Crashing class: https://gist.github.com/b849e7b8128d07ba865e258aaeb15abd

I was testing the same thing in a newly created Gradle project and it worked fine.

Any clue why is this happening?

Bump

Still not works, with different dependencies (tried now "reflections") on a fresh MDK installation. Any ideas again? I can't move on with my project without adding external dependencies.
