Hi all,
Quick update from the Maven front:
- The removal of Maven 2 is almost complete. I'm waiting for
aether-ant-tasks in the NEW queue to remove maven-ant-tasks, the last
package holding maven2-core.
- Some packages still fail to build due to missing junit/junit4
dependencies. I'm fixing them as they are reported by the reproducible
builds notifications.
- The maven dependencies have been further improved, we are now down to
37 packages downloaded (11MB) for 15MB on disk. There is still room to
shave ~2MB more by splitting libwagon2-java.
