>From the tarball, it does not build. (1.5.0 does not either). 'test' and 'clean' targets work fine. 'dist' does not.
+ mkdir -p build + SRC_DIR=avro-src-1.5.1 + rm -rf build/avro-src-1.5.1 + svn export --force . build/avro-src-1.5.1 svn: '.' is not a working copy language subprojects build fine by hand, but the toplevel script fails on svn export, because the tarball is not a svn working copy. The toplevel script works fine if I checkout the project. I'm not sure if it is required for the build script in the tarball to work or not. This is not a regression from 1.5.0. Additionally, Jackson and snappy have updated versions. This is some of the output from 'mvn versions:display-dependency-updates' [INFO] The following dependencies in Dependency Management have newer versions: [INFO] com.thoughtworks.paranamer:paranamer ................ 2.3 -> 2.3-debug [INFO] org.codehaus.jackson:jackson-mapper-asl ............... 1.7.3 -> 1.8.0 [INFO] org.xerial.snappy:snappy-java ................. 1.0.1-rc3 -> 1.0.1-rc4 Jackson's 1.7.x branch is now at 1.7.6. Avro 1.5.0 should probably not jump the minor revision number on this dependency, but the upping the bugfix revision is a good idea. Those are not major, if we have another RC, it would be good to update them. The staging maven artifacts work. I can consume them in my applications, completing unit tests and builds using them. The tarball md5 and sha1 check out. I'm +1 if having the build.sh script in the tarball work is not a requirement. If another RC is required, upping snappy to 1.0.1-rc4 and jackson to 1.7.6 would be a good idea.
