Hi, I think that the pom shipped with ant-contrib is broken such that mh_make will be unhappy when trying to build anything that depends upon it.
mh_make is bombing out thus: [INFO] Scanning for projects... [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Building Shibboleth Common Library [INFO] task-segment: [org.debian.maven:maven-packager-utils:1.6.6:generate] (aggregator-style) [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] BUILD ERROR [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Failed to resolve artifact. 2) jayasoft:ivy:jar:debian Try downloading the file manually from the project website. Then, install it using the command: mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=jayasoft -DartifactId=ivy -Dversion=debian -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there: mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=jayasoft -DartifactId=ivy -Dversion=debian -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id] Path to dependency: 1) edu.internet2.middleware:shibboleth-common:jar:1.4.1-SNAPSHOT 2) ant-contrib:ant-contrib:jar:debian 3) jayasoft:ivy:jar:debian 3) bcel:bcel:jar:debian Try downloading the file manually from the project website. Then, install it using the command: mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=bcel -DartifactId=bcel -Dversion=debian -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there: mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=bcel -DartifactId=bcel -Dversion=debian -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id] Path to dependency: 1) edu.internet2.middleware:shibboleth-common:jar:1.4.1-SNAPSHOT 2) ant-contrib:ant-contrib:jar:debian 3) bcel:bcel:jar:debian My POM (in shibboleth-common) has the following: <dependency> <groupId>ant-contrib</groupId> <artifactId>ant-contrib</artifactId> <version>1.0b2</version> <scope>runtime</scope> <exclusions> <exclusion> <groupId>ant</groupId> <artifactId>ant</artifactId> </exclusion> </exclusions> </dependency> which mh_make has tidied up to be the debian version ...and no dependencies on bcel or ivy directly. /usr/share/maven-repo/ant-contrib/ant-contrib/debian/ant-contrib-debian.pom contains: [inside <properties>] <debian.bcel.bcel.originalVersion>5.1</debian.bcel.bcel.originalVersion> <debian.jayasoft.ivy.originalVersion>1.4.1</debian.jayasoft.ivy.originalVersion> and the dependencies <dependency> <groupId>bcel</groupId> <artifactId>bcel</artifactId> <version>debian</version> </dependency> <!-- could not find a copy of Ivy in M2's repository, download http://www.jayasoft.org/downloads/ivy/1.4.1/ivy-1.4.1.jar and then mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=jayasoft -DartifactId=ivy -Dpackaging=jar -Dversion=1.4.1 -Dfile=ivy-1.4.1.jar --> <dependency> <groupId>jayasoft</groupId> <artifactId>ivy</artifactId> <version>debian</version> </dependency> I have "ivy" installed, which provides /usr/share/maven-repo/org/apache/ivy/ivy/debian/ivy-debian.pom and "libbcel-java", which provides /usr/share/maven-repo/org/apache/bcel/bcel/5.x/bcel-5.x.pom So should ant-contrib's POM in fact ask for org-apache-bcel:bcel 5.x and org-apache-ivy:ivy debian? and possibly depend on those two packages? Alternatively, can I tell mh_make to adjust these dependencies? Adding s/bcel/org-apache-bcel/ bcel jar s/debian/5.x/ * * to debian/maven.rules doesn't make any difference.
