Hi all, I am trying to build the version 2.0 of maven buit it fails claiming that a remote metedata version can't be found.
I followed the steps described at : http://maven.apache.org/guides/development/guide-building-m2.html 1) I checked-out the 2.0 version of maven : svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/components/tags/maven-2.0 maven-components 2) then I entered the corresponding directory and set the environment : export M2_HOME=~/softs/maven-perso PATH=$M2_HOME/bin:$PATH 3) After that, I launched the bootstrap : ./m2-bootstrap-all.sh But it failed with the following output : ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Building mboot ... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Building maven2 components ... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- You SHOULD have a ~/.m2/settings.xml file and must contain at least the following information: <settings> <localRepository>/path/to/your/repository</localRepository> </settings> Alternatively, you can specify -Dmaven.repo.local=/path/to/m2/repository HOWEVER, since you did not specify a repository path, maven will use: /home/pascal/.m2/repository to store artifacts locally.
