Correct. You shouldn't be installing the driver to run the cqllib tests.

It used to be listed in .build/build-resolver.xml
Because of CASSANDRA-16599 it is now in lib/ again.

While it is there under the tag in git, it is not found in the source
release artefact. The build script removes it when creating the
artefacts, see build.xml:1170.

We are still ironing out the wrinkles here, sorry. A lot of this was
done in a hurry for the last release, and a few fixes have followed on
from this change.

The ASF release policy has been reported to now be accurate. It states
that "A source release SHOULD not contain compiled code."

Presuming that python dependencies are not compiled, and it only says
SHOULD, it seems to make sense that we include the zip in the source
release artefact again. Although the same logic applies to all the jar
files, so it's a big IDK 🤷🏻‍♀️
