Not sure that I understand... I just removed a dependency and did a default build, it complains like this: ==== Missing dependency. The jar from: http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/xalan/jars/xalan-2.7.0.jar should be downloaded to: depends/jars/xalan-j_2.7.0/xalan.jar Run "ant fetch-depends" to automatically fetch dependencies. Note: Some of Harmony's dependencies are licensed under terms other than the Apache License v2. Total time: 0 seconds ==== Then 'ant fetch-depends' went to get it for me.
