This behavior comes from upstream vendor. In fact the blame sould not go on ant, which is a kind of

I don't mean to blame anyone.

I mean to get this problem fixed.

Could you point me to a responsible party, who could fix the problem?


The responsible party could be said to be Sun as their jdk-1.5.0_xx package says that it provides xml-commons-apis and really doesn't. SL provides the java environment in a different packaging configuration as compared to RHEL. This does cause some compatibility issues, at times.

Thanks!

Jean-Paul,

Installing the xml-commons-apis makes the symptom go away.

It is poor however, for one package to report errors in this way
when another independent package is not installed.

If it is not a Scientific Linux issue, whose issue is it?

Cheers!

Hi,


You just have to install the xml-commons-apis package.

(yum install xml-commons-apis)

Hi,

The ant 1.6.5 package in SL 5 appears to be misconfigured.
