reproduced, thanks!
AFAIR, to run unit tests you will also need to put junit.jar into ant
lib directory, but I am not sure which version..
Argh, Getting Started guide is even less usable than I thought. See
how it is organized:
2. Checking out the Federated Build Tree
svn co ...
After you populate the source trees in the _next_step_,
working_classlib will be the checkout of the class library SVN
tree
HA-HA! the next step is "3. Starting the Federated Build" which suggests
"ant -Dauto.fetch=true" that fails without means to surprise us.
I am going to add "ant populate-src" just before the "ant
-Dauto.fetch=true" to solve this under-documentation..
