This weekend I tried getting my ASF release machine to do a full build, in prep for a 1.8 RC. I followed the instructions in BUILD.txt to use docker to handle the dependencies.
Once I was in the docker shell, I tried both `./build.sh test` and `./build.sh dist` and both failed while trying to build the java language libraries due to an unsatisfied dependency on org.apache.avro:dev-tools. Anyone know if this is more likely to be an error in my setup vs a gap in the build script? My intuition says gap in the build script, but I haven't had time to dig in at all. -- busbey
