--------------------------------------------
bq. The old one had some problems with the sanity check as the check needs the
jar though.
Ahh OK.
bq. how should we handle if the jar can not be obtained? I would rather say the
build must fail asif we du a release build the jar will not be included.
I think, ideally, If it's the nightly build that's running, the disposition
should be robust (ignored), else it should be brittle (like it is today).
I'm not sure about hosting the JARs. The license for bdb-je is at
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/htdocs/jeoslicense.html
and for bdb
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/htdocs/oslicense.html.
I think these libs were LGPL'd before Oracle acquired Sleepycat, which was
why we could not host them, but I have no idea if Oracle's licensing would
permit us to host/redistribute them. Maybe an inquiry on legal@ is the next
step? If the licensing allows it, I think the simplest solution would be to
check them in to our svn repository....

> Every so often our nightly build fails because contrib/db is unable to
> download the necessary BDB JARs from http://downloads.osafoundation.org. I
> think in such cases we should simply skip contrib/db's tests, if it's the
> nightly build that's running, since it's a false positive failure.
