Updating java-commons-io?

[Hartmut Goebel]

Hi,

how to update java-commons-io?

I packaged Saxon, a Java XSLT processor which seems to be one of the few 
supporting XSLT 3.0, XQuery 3.1, and XPath 3.1 and thus being used widely.

One of its dependencies requires java-commons-io 2.7+, while we only 
have 2.5.

While I prepared package for 2.18.0 (the current version), I have no 
clue about this "apache-pom-*" stuff. Any hints?

Consider *adding* a more recent version instead of replacing it.
There's a chance we need the older version for the early Java dependency
graph.  Upgrading packages close to the root is pretty messy.

apache-pom stuff contains the parert pom files used by the pom files of commons-io. They are required for maven to work properly. You'll need to look at the pom file of commons-io to find the exact version and package it. The parant pom file might have a parent itself, which needs to be packaged too.

Thanks, I did so, and hopefully did it correctly, see
