That’s great! With the latest version of the “ant-build-system” (patch
will be sent out today) you can just do
(arguments
`(#:jdk ,icedtea-8
#:ant ,some-other-ant))
to specify a different package for Ant or the JDK. You would not need
to override the value of “icedtea” (which is set to “icedtea-7” for now
as this is the latest supported release).
