As for patching the zip, I am familiar with that process, and I am not familiar with the GitHub/pull request process. Patching the zip previously worked fine. Thank You!

But rather than patching via the ZIP, why not clone the GitHub repo and then provide a pull request there? What does your patch do?

I am in the initial phase of trying to patch a NetBeans 11.0 platform module (which I have successfully done in NetBeans 8.2) per the procedure at http://wiki.netbeans.org/DevFaqOrphanedNetBeansOrgModules. I downloaded the 11.0 source from the links at https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans/incubating-11.0/incubating-netbeans-11.0-source.zip The process is crashing at the “ant -f nbbuild/build.xml bootstrap” step with numerous errors regarding javax.help, such as: nb_all\nbbuild\antsrc\org\netbeans\nbbuild\CheckHelpSets.java:37: error: package javax.help does not exist In the netbeans 8.2 platform source, javahelp\external contains the following files: binaries-list, jhall-2.0_05.jar, jhall-2.0_05-license.txt In the netbeans 11.0 platform source, javahelp\external contains the following files: binaries-list, jhall-2.0_05-license.txt jhall-2.0_05.jar is missing in 11.0, which I believe is the source of the above error. The 11.0 binaries-list file contains the following text: # Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one # or more contributor license agreements.

CA70822C47A67FC3A11670270567C2D01566DAE1 jhall-2.0_05.jar It seems that jhall-2.0_05.jar should be in the 11.0, javahelp\external folder (like it is in 8.2), but it is missing. Is this a bug? I searched through the 11.0 source, and I don’t find jhall-2.0_05.jar included. Thank You for any help!
