Description of problem: Eclipse 3.1 needs classes from ant >= 1.6.3 to build. This is, unless we ship the pre-built ant jars that come with Eclipse. We don't want to do this anymore :) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): N/A How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. try to build Eclipse 3.1 with all of ant's jars symlinked to those in /usr/share/java. Actual results: [javac] 1. ERROR in /home/overholt/cvsdist/eclipse/devel/eclipse-3.1.0_fc/plugins/org.eclipse.ant.core/src_ant/org/eclipse/ant/internal/core/ant/EclipseDefaultExecutor.java [javac] (at line 17) [javac] import org.apache.tools.ant.Executor; [javac] ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ [javac] The import org.apache.tools.ant.Executor cannot be resolved Expected results: Compilation succeeds. Additional info:
This is no longer necessary. Closing.
