Comment 60 for bug 427539

Excellent news! I installed maven2 from the lucid universe repository. I then copied two sample maven-based projects to the new schrooted system. They both built and tested successfully. Because the original maven bug was so fundamental (it failed to run even without a maven project), I am happy to report the problem has been fixed on lucid.

Well done, Matthius. Thank you for your efforts and particularly for helping me with testing. I hope it won't be too long before the equivalent changes become available on karmic.

I can now convert my own projects to run temporarily under lucid and retire my old hardy system at last. Any further problems I might encounter when I convert these projects will not be relevant to this bug.
