[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1547?page=comments#action_12428354 ] V.Narayanan commented on DERBY-1547: ------------------------------------
Hi, Thanx a ton for taking a look at the issue. But if u look at the failure the specific failure in this case is due to the Subversion number being added along with the version number. The subversion number keeps changing very often. It would be difficult to update out files each time. I thought I could add sed masks to mask the subversion number. But I see that it is not right to do so. Can anyone pls offer me some guidance here?
