Hibernate 5.2.2: No Persistence provider for EntityManager : <p>What has changed between Hibernate 5.1.1 and 5.2.2? If I use 5.2.2 I'll get an error message "No Persistence provider for EntityManager named pu". Exactly the same configuration works with 5.1.1. How should I change my code to get 5.2.2 to work?</p>
