Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-3575:
--------------------------------------
I asked on Jan 16 2013 on Apache's infrastructure list if build tooling used by
our project (but which is not part of what we consider out distributed
artifacts) needed to be put on the Apache mirroring system. I got an answer
which said no, it just had to be in the SVN under the Apache License V2; they
are not themselves part of the "product".
There was one other reply which said that person also concurred.
So, for build tooling for our project, which are not considered part of the
products we release, but are just things used to build them, these don't need
to be mirrored onto the apache mirror system; they are just put up at Maven
Central.
That's why you don't find the uima-wide parent-pom appearing as a source.zip on
the apache mirror system.
I think there is no need for any Fedora packaging of uimaj and uima-addons to
include the parent-pom artifact; build tooling artifacts needed by Maven are
automatically fetched by Maven as needed when running the Maven build tooling
to build-from-sources (of course, that would entail installing "Maven" on your
target system - see http://uima.apache.org/one-time-setup.html#maven-setup ).
Can you please see if you can do your packaging without including the
parent-pom build tooling?
