Docbook build script usability issue
------------------------------------
Key: UIMA-311
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-311
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Build, Packaging and Test
Affects Versions: 2.1
Reporter: Adam Lally
Priority: Minor
If you try to run the docbook build script (or mvn assembly:assembly) from a
source distribution, you get the expected file not found error because the
docbook files are missing. However, you will be left with an empty
docbook/docbooks-xsl-1.70.0 directory.
If you now follow the instructions on the website and obtain the docbook/zip
directory, and then re-run the build script, it will fail again, with the same
error message. I think the problem is that it sees the empty
docbooks-xsl-1.70.0 directory and assumes you have already successfully
unzipped the docbook files, so it does not even attempt to unzip them again.
The workaround is to manually delete the empty directory before re-running the
build.
