Description of problem: If you try and build axis with all of ant's subpackages installed then the build will fail. Something is repeatedly scanning the system classpath and leaking a file descriptor for every jar in it. With all of ant's subpackages installed, the system classpath is long enough for the standard ulimit of 1024 open files to be hit. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ant-1.6.2-3jpp_10fc libgcj-4.0.0-11 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install ant and all of its subpackages. 2. Comment out the workaround in axis.spec (search for OPT_JAR_LIST). 3. Try and build the axis rpm. Results: A random IO error, which strace reveals to be an open() failing with EMFILE.
