Hi,

the jpackage team and I have been trying to resolve the problems they
are currently facing with their setup.  With jpackage RPMs,
ANT_HOME/lib is empty and ant-launcher.jar together with pretty much
any other Java library on earth sits in a shared Java directory.  This
means that the launcher is going to pull everything.

Their proposed solution consists of two steps:

(1) Some changes to the wrapper script that will set up the CLASSPATH
in a more Ant traditional way if a variable rpm_mode is set.  This
would also be used to disable the sourceing of /etc/ant.conf if
explicitly set to off.

If rpm_mode is not set, the script is supposed to behave exactly as it
does right now.

(2) Modify the Lanucher to use the directory pointed to by the system
property ant.lib instead of the parent directory of ant-launcher.jar
if it has been set.  The modified wrapper would set the property to
the (empty in RPM installations) ANT_HOME/lib explicitly.

Does anybody see a problem with this?

Stefan
