[Geoserver-devel] geoserver 1.7.7 build from source fails

Hi all,

I'm trying to build geoserver 1.7.7, I checked it out from the repository https://svn.codehaus.org/geoserver/tags/1.7.7
but when using maven to build it, it can't download the mavn artifact org.geotools:gt-validation:jar:2.5.8
The problem seems to persist, I have been trying it several times already today

Regards,
Stephen

I'm trying to build geoserver 1.7.7, I checked it out from the
repository https://svn.codehaus.org/geoserver/tags/1.7.7
but when using maven to build it, it can't download the mavn artifact
org.geotools:gt-validation:jar:2.5.8

It seems that gt-directory is in the GeoTools "unsupported" directory and thus doesn't get
into the maven repository.

We took the GeoTools 2.5.8 source from svn and built the unsupported modules mif, gml, directory
on our own. Then GeoServer 1.7.7 compiled successfully. It would be nicer if all GeoServer
dependencies would be available in public repositories.
