Hi, Yes, you are completely correct, the current reality is a total mess. Repobuild (as it works now) assumes a lot of things which may not be workable. Mostly

Hi, Yes, you are completely correct, the current reality is a total mess. Repobuild (as it works now) assumes a lot of things which may not be workable. Mostly I just wanted to see what would happen :). One of the main goals here is to allow folks other than the primary author to write a BUILD file, e.g. to back-port old systems. As a consequence, it has to work with other build systems and wrap them. And yes, Maven does this pretty well with the centralized repository. I would like Repobuild to wrap Maven, though I haven't yet written that piece.
