Cannot build Trunks
-------------------
Key: DIR-196
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIR-196
Project: Directory
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny
Priority: Blocker
Attachments: build-failure.txt
Again, and I'm pretty sure this is not the last time, the trunks cannot be
built...
At this point, I really think we should *SERIOUSLY* consider switching from a
so called "build system" (Maven 2) to something that may be not genious, but
which _simply_ work.
It's not the first time the build is broken, and I agree that somebody may have
made an error while committing a pom.xml, but it's obviously insane that a
simple error cannot be fixed because we can't figure out what is the origin of
the error without checking every commits for the last modification which has
caused the build to fail - if an only if a commmit is the culprit, because
maven is really used to s***t its own pant by downloading new version of
(broken) plugins -.
I'm really fed up of maven. It's supposed to *help*, noy to make you loosing
your time. And even if the hypothesis of me being a complete idiot - an option
which cannot be discarded -, then maven whould be designed for idiots like me.
This is not the case.
Maven concepts looks like the current build of apache DS : totally broken.
Let's ditch this piece of shi^h^hoftware out of our path. No more hurdles.
Let's use make, ./configure, or simply ant. Somtheing that works. Thanks.
NB : I'm more than pissed off.
