I'm not sure I agree. That would be just like a debugger that cannot debug a program but only parse a previously captured core. I'd say it's not "unusable", but rather "mostly unusable" :) But I would not spend too much energy on discussing the gravity of that bug, it's not extremly important. I would be more interested if someone could tell us some words about the steps that should be done so that the jacoco agent becomes usable from the package. I have no knowledge of this soft, and cannot easily answer that question myself. Thanks for your time, Mt.
