> Key: RAT-118
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-118
> Project: Apache Rat
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: maven
> Affects Versions: 0.8
> Reporter: Matthias Friedrich
> Priority: Minor
>
> We use apache-rat-plugin in Maven to fail our builds in test phase if
> unapproved licenses are found. This confused contributors quite a bit because
> they had no indication of what exactly went wrong. It would be really helpful
> if Rat would point users explicitly to rat.txt if the build fails. Maybe even
> print the filename of the first offending file with a clear error message.
