Can't build groovy 1.8.0

[henri.gomez@…]

During build, i got the following error :

:info:build ----------
:info:build 1) biz.aQute:bnd:jar:0.0.401
:info:build
:info:build   Try downloading the file manually from the project website.
:info:build
:info:build   Then, install it using the command:
:info:build       mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=biz.aQute -DartifactId=bnd -Dversion=0.0.401 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
:info:build
:info:build   Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there:
:info:build       mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=biz.aQute -DartifactId=bnd -Dversion=0.0.401 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]

Maven artifact biz.aQute / bnd, version 0.0.401 is not available from central.

Latest version available there is 0.0.384:

​http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/biz/aQute/bnd/

Note, I'm using a Nexus proxy, may and the extra Maven repo, ​http://www.aQute.biz/repo, is not available from there :

repositories {
    // todo Some repos are needed only for some configs. Declare them just for the configuration once Gradle allows this.
    mavenRepo urls: ["http://repo1.maven.org/maven2"] // default, tools
    mavenRepo urls: ["http://www.aQute.biz/repo"] // examples
    mavenRepo urls: ["http://repository.jboss.org/maven2"] // examples, tools
}

bnd is a moving target and we had this problems for earlier versions. I'll have a look into this.

There are 3 different dependencies that will cause this to fail.

Initially it fails on bnd. Manually installing 0.0.401 from Peter Kriens' site gets you past that, but then it fails on the version of jarjar available. Maven Central has 1.1 instead of 1.0. Once I manually installed 1.0 it finally failed on org.eclipse:osgi because 3.4.3.R34x_v20081215-1030 is no longer available from Maven Central. 3.5.0.v20090520 is now the preferred version.

There is the same problem for a couple of different jars from the ​now-disabled JBoss repository.

The repository id used in the Groovy build file (config/maven/groovy-tools.pom) is "jboss repo", so putting this in ~/.m2/settings.xml makes the build work:

<settings>
  <mirrors>
    <mirror>
      <id>jboss-public</id>
      <name>JBoss Public Nexus Repository</name>
      <url>https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public/</url>
      <mirrorOf>jboss repo</mirrorOf>
    </mirror>
  </mirrors>
</settings>

(Modifying the address in config/maven/groovy-tools.pom would probably work too.)

Is this still a problem with groovy 1.8.5?

[kylesm@…]

Replying to ryandesign@…:

Is this still a problem with groovy 1.8.5?

Don't have access to either of my machines today, but if it was 1.8.5 that came out last week that built cleanly on 1-2 of them. Can confirm versions tomorrow.

[kylesm@…]

So it was Groovy 1.8.4 that I updated to last week without any problems, but 1.8.5 built successfully today.
