I have now built and tested several maven projects under all of my three systems: karmic production, minimal karmic schroot and lucid schroot.
All of them worked exactly as expected. As far as I am concerned, the latest maven2 distributions are acceptable. My evidence suggests that the original bug report (mvn --help crashes) should be closed. The most likely cause of the crashes is incompatible back-level ~/.m2/repository/ cache. I do not think there is a strong case for the package installation script to wipe out the cache - unless this action is recommended by the maven development team. I will leave that issue for Matthius to make a decision. Thanks for your help, Matthius! I am sorry that so many of us maven users doubted the quality of your package. -- [FFe] Sync libmaven packages from Debian unstable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/427539 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
