I already asked for a 2.2.1 release to remove those "-Extension" in manifest, as they break running my app under tomcat 4.
Those libs are only required by the compiler jar, not the api (runtime) jar, tho they can be removed from the manifest. This manifest is hand-writen and is included during the ant build. Building with maven doesn't include it. @see http://www.mail-archive.com/commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org/msg88665.html Nico. 2007/3/6, Jörg Schaible <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Don't think so.
