There have been some comments on the jpackage.org mailing list to the effect that our manual doesn't really have correct installation instructions for that environment, although elsewhere on our site we do link to them.

I have rewritten the install manual page to add this content, but rather than commit it and then draw comments, I decided to post it on my own site temporarily for comment. If there is none, I'll just commit it.



I had a quick read of the section - looks good. Perhaps you could mention ) that if ant has been installed by jpackage (at least the current versions), the env
    variable ANT_HOME will be ignored,

    switch to ignore the jpackage installation.

It's nice.

I'm thinking of adding fetch.xml to the end user distro, as it can then pick up many of the optional extra jar files (the OSS ones). It needs tweaking to autoretrieve the maven task to do the downloads, which leads to a problem: the version of that task when ant1.7 ships will be less than the latest version by the end of the lifetime of the tool. Either we do hard code a version# into a shipped property file, or we provide some way of getting the latest version (property url off the ant site to get the list of latest JARS for that version, perhaps)

Peter, what is fetch.xml?  Sounds interesting.

That would be Steve L's
