When executing this line: bootstrap/bin/ant -f fetch.xml -Ddest=system || true
to download the runtime dependencies, the build fails with this message: BUILD FAILED /usr/src/java/apache-ant/apache-ant-1.10.2/fetch.xml:332: The following error occurred while executing this line: /usr/src/java/apache-ant/apache-ant-1.10.2/fetch.xml:122: Unable to resolve artifact: Missing: ---------- 1) javax.media:jai-core:jar:1.1.3 Try downloading the file manually from the project website. Then, install it using the command: mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=javax.media -DartifactId=jai-core -Dversion=1.1.3 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there: mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=javax.media -DartifactId=jai-core -Dversion=1.1.3 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id] Path to dependency: 1) org.apache.maven:super-pom:pom:2.0 2) javax.media:jai-core:jar:1.1.3 ---------- 1 required artifact is missing. for artifact: org.apache.maven:super-pom:pom:2.0 from the specified remote repositories: central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2) Presumably this is why you had to download jai-core-1.1.3.jar in the first place. And I assume the same reason for jai-codec-1.1.3.jar. This failure is a pain because it stops my script. I think it would be worth a note in the book mentioning this build failure and assuring LFS devotees that all runtime dependencies have in fact been downloaded. jb.
