[Bug 53849] Unable to restrict the packages for javadoc by using packageList

--- Comment #1 from Stefan Bodewig <bo...@apache.org> ---
You are correct but I'm tempted to say it is by design:

> NOTE: the packagelist attribute allows you to specify the list of packages to document outside of the Ant file. It's a much better practice to include everything inside the build.xml file. This option was added in order to make it easier to migrate from regular makefiles, where you would use this option of javadoc. The packages listed in packagelist are not checked, so the task performs even if some packages are missing or broken. Use this option if you wish to convert from an existing makefile. Once things are running you should then switch to the regular notation.
