Sofar, i'm not aware of any trouble caused by someone using jpackage rpms.
Most of current (virtual jaxp parser resource, unified java virtual machine location, etc...) and future adaptations (splitted optional tasks to make dependencies less drastic, automatic loading of dependend classes) are pointless outside jpackage project. Inversely, taking care of non-rpm based platform is pointless for us. > The more we have in common with original ant script, the > better it will be.

I don't patch defaut script anymore, i provide a complete rewrite offering same features with unified jpackage behaviour.

And ant finds it, as i use -Dant.home=/usr in jpackage script :-) -- Guillaume Rousse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GPG key http://lis.snv.jussieu.fr/~rousse/gpgkey.html -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
