I figured I'd give this another shot (using gumpy.py not gumpy.sh) prior to trying it on moof..apache.org (my first walk on the OSX wild side :-).
Gump.try is a Linux box (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 ES) which ought be good, but I'm having a few problems. [For the record this is a VM running on ESX on a Dell server, and I hope it's copious resources allow it to survive better than the GSX attempt at gump.try did, but no promises.] These issues are not really Gump issues (per se, except third) but I was hoping this group of folks would be interested, and also perhaps knowleable enough to help me. 1) My admin can't find an SVN RPM to magically install SVN. With the recent release of 1.0, is there something around the corner -- or a site to download a pre-build 1.0 *client* release? If not, anybody done it? [If nobody can volunteer answers I'll check/ask on the SVN list.] 2) I am struggling to build forrest, perhaps 'cos ant 1.5 is shipped w/ this OS I think (which is cool, but odd since Java didn't appear to be, maybe some JRE was.) I've tried using forrest with the ant is comes with (I think) and also trying to build ant. I'm kinda used to forrest build.sh and ant build.sh just working, but now both fail with the same problem. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ant]$ build.sh Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tools/ant/launch/Launcher [EMAIL PROTECTED] ant]$ I assume this is not so much a class not found (I assume the build.sh scripts handle that gracefully) but more a clash between old an new jars, perhaps. I have to admit, my environment is not the cleanest ever, especially with the NFS mount of my home directory. That said, I can't really explain it. Any thoughts? [Basically I've copied an older copy from an internal site, so I'm able to make some progress, but just kinda curious.] 3) I am trying to run 'python gumpy.py' and no more, I don't want to have to wrapper it with a shell script to set some environment variables, if I can avoid it. The main two things needed in the environment/path (assuming CVS/SVN are there) are JAVA_HOME/java and FORREST_HOME/forrest. Now we could assume they are there, and check complain, but are we helping enough? I'm not sure these things ought be in the workspace, should they? Alternatively, do Pythonic applications have property files that they set environments with?
