nb-javac errors in (and up to) 12.6

Hi,

Interesting to note the workaround for some Java editing / nb-javac
errors in NETBEANS-6089 - to uninstall / reinstall nb-javac.  It looks
like nb-javac is not properly updated when people import settings /
plugins.  I guess this is due to the fact that the spec version of the
overarching nb-javac module was never incremented?!

Just one to be aware of if people report issues I guess, unless we
decide it's worth an update.  Roll on NB13 where it shouldn't be a
problem!

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-6089
https://github.com/apache/netbeans/blob/release126/nb/updatecenters/extras/nbjavac/manifest.mf#L5

Best wishes,

Neil

It wasn't overlooked in the spec version bump because it was bundled
in a special form of internal update centre that downloads from Maven,
rather than being standard IDE modules.

This distribution method has caused so many issues it's good to now
see the back of it!  Unfortunately, a similar mechanism is used for
the JavaFX modules, and they can't ever be included because of their
license.  Luckily they're not needed for much, so the issues get
triggered less.

interesting. The config migration should be probably turned off for this 
module - migrating it from old config would be always the wrong choice.

Isn't there usually a spec version bump for basically everything before 
release? How was nb-javac overlooked?
