Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-java mailing l= ist <java@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 237913: devel/apache-ant - upgrade, build from source https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D237913 --- Description --- The port currently installs pre-built JARs and documentation, which is a tad depressing -- FreeBSD ports ought to build open-sourced software from sourc= e, using binaries only when sources aren't available or in other exceptional circumstances... The proposed patch corrects this problem -- unfortunately common for the Java-related ports -- and also upgrades the version from 1.10.5 to the currently-latest 1.10.6. It also enables the test-target. What's still to do: * Some of tests fail, which needs scrupulous investigation; * Building of Javadocs throws errors because the optional 3rd-party JARs aren't present -- [bug 63438](https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D63438) filed with t= he upstram. These errors are currently ignored. * The port's options should list all of the optional dependencies -- enabl= ing and disabling the extra features explicitly These to-do items can be addressed incrementally -- I think, the port can be upgraded as proposed already.
