URL: https://github.com/apache/commons-exec/pull/5#issuecomment-539973282
 
 
   The commons-exec pom specifies `<maven.compiler.target>1.5</...`
   
   A lot of the plugins used by commons-parent 49 are Java 7 or 8. Travis is currently failing for various reasons all linked to versions.
   
   JDK 6 cannot build as it cannot use v 1.7 plugins (build-helper-maven-plugin:3.0.0)
   JDK 7 cannot build as it cannot use v 1.8 plugins (animal-sniffer-maven-plugin:1.18)
   JDK 8 did not build as the precise dist does not have openjdk8.
   JDK 11 cannot build as it does not support v 1.5 source.
   
   I suggest posting to the Commons Developers List <de...@commons.apache.org> with the subject heading prefix [exec] to open a discussion about how to upgrade this component.
