Bug Description

The contents of xml-apis.jar have been incorporated into the Java runtime environment (rt.jar in JRE directory) since Java version 1.4. Goobi compiles and seems to run without problems without that file on my Java 1.6. IMHO we can remove that file from /libs.

Docket creation works for me even without xml-apis.jar.

I am sorry, it is not xml-apis.jar but xml-apis-ext.jar. Do you have a barcode included in your docket? This jar gets reloaded from fop when you use the barcode feature.
