Hi, I just recently tried to build myfaces core 1.2 trunk. The maven build failed because there is a dependency on artifact "jstl:jstl 1.2", which is not in the standard repos.
Actually, both the api and impl poms just declare a dependency on jstl:jstl, and the version is controlled from the parent pom (in the "core/trunk12" dir). The pom files appear to have had this situation since at least jan 2008, ie jstl:jstl 2.0 has been needed to build for a long while. I'm a little puzzled why this hasn't been noticed as a problem before. Maybe we all typically build with some Sun repos in our maven ~/.m2/settings.xml files or similar. The latest version of jstl:jstl in the repo1.maven.org/maven2 repos is vesion 1.1, and that has a redirect pointing to "javax.servlet:jstl". The artifact javax.servlet:jstl *is* in the maven repos, and version 1.2 is there. So is there any reason why we should not update the poms to depend on javax.servlet:jstl 1.2 instead of jstl:jstl 1.2? By the way, the JSF1.1 version depends on "javax.servlet:jstl 1.1.0". Regards, Simon
