I build infrequently, but when I do, I often get errors due to out-of-date jaxp
and jax-ws source bundles. My typical process is something like this:
1) Start to build
2) Observe a failure complaining about an improper $ALT_DROPS_DIR
3) Track down my note where I wrote down the URL where I can g
My plan of record has been to just unzip these bundles right into the
repositories and get rid of this painful
situation, that I have to confess, I created. :^(
But I was thinking I could come up with some kind of way to paint these sources
RED or something so
that people do not patch these files
So it sounds like doing anything to improve the current setup would be a waste
of time, since it's just going to go away. That's fine.
Is committing zip files frowned upon? That would make clear that the "source"
is the intact bundle, not a bunch of separate, editable files. Just a
thought..
Checking in any binary files is frowned upon.

.. you could use a patch file instead of a zip file.
