I've built an ant file that downloads and builds maven .... well almost. When I call an ant task to operate on the build-bootstrap.xml the build fails:
<ant antfile="${maven.dir}/build-bootstrap.xml" dir="${maven.dir}" /> It successfully creates the bootstrap directory in the directory where the maven code is located and compiles the maven classes (bootstrap/classes) and copies over the top-level maven build-XXX.xml files; but when it gets to doing the plugins it creates a new bootstrap directory in the directory in which I lauched ant and attempts to put the plugins into it. The last output is [create-build-system] Generating to file /home/emberson/tmp-maven/jakarta-turbine-maven/bootstrap/bootstrap.report It puts the bootstrap.report in the correct directory, but it attempts to put the plugins in the directory /home/emberson/bootstrap/maven/plugins. I am doing this so that others in my group need only execute an ant file to get maven, and to document how to do it.
