Re: [build] z/OS and Ant 1.8.0

[Oliver Deakin <ol...@googlemail.com>]

Ok, this has finally reached the top of my todo list! Running 
fetch-depends on ant 1.7.5 on z/OS I get:

     Missing dependency.  The jar from:
       ${xalan.url}
     should be downloaded to:
       ${xalan.orig.jar}

but running on ant 1.8.0 I can run fetch-depends and the full build 
successfully, so it looks like this issue has been resolved. I've 
reverted the copy/delete workaround at revision r951343.

For those building on z/OS, the minimum required level of Ant is now 1.8.0.

Regards,
Oliver

I find it hard to believe you had nothing better to do but thanks! ;-)

That doesn't seem unreasonable.  Let's just hope no one tries to build
our web site on z/OS since that only builds for me with ant 1.7.x.
