Sorry - I didn't make myself that clear ... we've got the --without-java flag that removes java. That's not the problem. The problem is that if the build detects java, it then *assumes* that ant is *also* there, and blows up. I was just trying to make the point that if LO wants java to be there, I have no problem at all with that. If java gets pulled on to my system, that's fine. What isn't fine is if (a) I didn't ask for it, and (b) its presence causes things to blow up (like here). On the old build, the presence of java pulled a copy of ant if it wasn't already there - to get that behaviour back would be best imho. (And seeing as my latest little project is testing a java shim - thanks Caolan :-) - I need to get ant onto my system somehow - I'd prefer it to be automagic rather than explicit.)
