Yes, we have a problem with libs, e.g. we have the same lib (velocity) at different places!
We are not "busting the build". Currently, if two blocks require the same lib, it has to be in lib/optional. When the blocks directory structure was built, someone moved the libs into the blocks directories making it impossible to use the same jar in several projects. Now, each time a second block needs the jar we have to move it :( As I pointed out several times, this can be solved with an updated build system where we have all jars in lib/optional. These jars are not copied automatically to WEB-INF/lib. They are only copied if a included block depends on them. Carsten
