It rebuilds the sources so there is no guarantee that it matches the actual Jetty release. In order to be done proper it would have to be done like the jetty 10 so actual jetty build artifacts are used and to prevent breakages like it can be seen with the multiple Non 27 builds to wrap up very minimal change exposed by this needless rebuild. Note that the job deployment part is broken due to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=570630 and will need fixing too. > > I am not listening on the platform releng list, that's why I didn't see > your request for help. > > >> >>> -- >>> Regards, >>> Nitin Dahyabhai >>> Eclipse WTP PMC >>> _______________________________________________ >>> cross-project-issues-dev mailing list >>> cross-project-issues-dev@eclipse.org >>> To unsubscribe from this list, visit >>> https://www.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/cross-project-issues-dev >>> >> >> >> -- >> Aleksandar Kurtakov >> Red Hat Eclipse Team >> _______________________________________________ >> cross-project-issues-dev mailing list >> cross-project-issues-dev@eclipse.org >> To unsubscribe from this list, visit >> https://www.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/cross-project-issues-dev >> > _______________________________________________ > cross-project-issues-dev mailing list > cross-project-issues-dev@eclipse.org > To unsubscribe from this list, visit > https://www.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/cross-project-issues-dev > -- Aleksandar Kurtakov Red Hat Eclipse Team
