I think I found a better solution, for me anyway. I managed to reinstall
Netbeans 8.2 and so far have reverted the one project that was causing a
problem and everything now works as expected, including removing
libraries as well as debugging libraries. Suddenly life is good again.
Having been retired almost 20 years now, I have limited my projects to
Java and html. I will keep NB 12.0 for html since I recall it working
better but all my Java will probably be going back to 8.2 as the need
arises.
Long Live Ant.

No, it just means that I've never created a "sister project" that I

to share it and if I want to share it, I need to publish it somewhere
(even to the same machine until I push it somewhere else). I didn't
always assume that, but personal usage pushed me to do that.
_My_ use cases aren't _your_ use cases and just because I can't see a
reason to do *X* doesn't mean that no other humans can see a reason to
do *X*.
I have 5 computers (well, 4 and one VM) within 6 feet of me as I write
this; if I've written a library that I find useful, I'd like it to be
available on other machines in my network without having those
machines recompile that library from scratch. That's why one of those
computers is running a Nexus server to serve such libraries to any
other machines that are running in my local network.
Just because I do things a certain way does not make that way "best",
"optimal" or even "sane".
