Hi Hilton,
I'm still not sure I understand. It's possible we are talking about separate things, or misunderstanding one another. My point is that, if I'm understanding your suggestion, the [[dspace-install-dir]] doesn't exist until you actually fully Install DSpace.
So, the normal installation process is:
1) Download the DSpace source somewhere and unzip if needed. We call this source directory "[dspace-source]" or "[src]" for short. Obviously it can be wherever you want it to be.
2) Then, you run "mvn package". Currently, this creates a directory named "[dspace-source]/dspace/target/dspace-[version]-build/" (But this ticket suggests renaming that directory to [dspace-source]/target/dspace/dspace-installer/
3) Then, you run "ant fresh_install" (from that created 'target' directory). This will create the directory specified in "dspace.dir" (in dspace.cfg) and Install Dspace into it. This created DSpace installation directory is often referred to as the [dspace] directory (also sometimes called the "dspace-install-dir"). This DSpace installation directory can again be whatever you want it to be.
So, my confusion here is that it seems like you are wanting step #2 (mvn package) to build/compile DSpace into a subfolder of a directory that isn't created until step #3 (ant fresh_install). Obviously, this would be problematic based on our current build processes.

As we all know, when you build DSpace (mvn package) it gets built into a directory at:
[src]/dspace/target/dspace-[version]-build/
Unfortunately, when using IT/infrastructure automation software (e.g. Puppet or Chef or similar), this build location can be very difficult to dynamically determine because it includes the Maven <version>. For example, wha...
