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
Why ? (mere curiosity)
I do not see any problem with this, it is good that you take care of it. :-)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?

I also agree with Dominique's comment ant.library.dirs or ant.lib.dirs might be better than just ant.lib.
