Hi,
When I was trying to build pylucene-6.4.1 in Cygwin on Windows, the
"$ make build" exit with errors complaining that some jar files
cannot be open. It seems because some of the jars under
lucene-java-6.4.1 are symbolic links with size of 1k instead of
concrete ones. Here is a list that I located them with find command:
$ find ./lucene-java-6.4.1/ -name *.jar -size 1k
./test/pylucene-6.4.1/lucene-java-6.4.1/lucene/analysis/icu/lib/icu4j

After downloaded and replaced lucene-java-6.4.1 from
https://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/java/6.4.1/, things went all
good.
Is it an issue in the release, or I have missed something before
built?
Yes this is a minor but annoying issue of this realease. There are some
dead links packaged, pointing to Andi's home. like this one
./lucene-java-6.4.1/lucene/analysis/morfologik/lib/morfologik-stemming-2.1.1.jar
->
/Users/vajda/.ivy2/cache/org.carrot2/morfologik-stemming/bundles/morfologik-stemming-2.1.1.jar
Maybe the "make release/distrib" target has a bug or these links where
commited to svn by mistake.
BTW this is no real issue on a real POSIX system. Cygwin seems to make
this worse as it has to emulate symlinks somehow. I guess instead of
downloading lucene manually you could have fixed it by just removing
all the bad links.
Indeed, this is a bug of mine.
What would you prefer:
- include the actual .jar files in the distribution archive (tell tar to
follow the symlinks when I build the PyLucene distribution)
- or exclude the symlinks (tell tar to exclude symlinks); your
running build would then use ivy to fetch them
