Build Fail

[TianzhuQin]

I am sorry that I cannot use ant to make it here. The following warnings come out. Could you please help me to check that? I think it is because some files disappear.

Files seem to be missing in src:
BUILD FAILED
/Users/jackpark/Documents/gitprojects5/TIMELINE/SIMILE/timeline-master/build.xml:25: taskdef class edu.mit.simile.jsminTask.JSMinTask cannot be found
using the classloader AntClassLoader[]

The task identified in the error message calls for this classpath
classpath="tools/jsmin-task/jsminTask.jar"

There is no jsminTask.jar in this master.

This is getting serious: I wonder if anyone is actually using this codebase. I found the missing jar in an older version and dropped that in. Now, I get a new fatal error
This classpath does not exist: there is no src/ajax directory
<property name="ajax_api" value="src/ajax/api

either in the master build or the older version.

I wonder if anyone is actually using this codebase.

Debian distributes a build which is used at least for https://timeline.debian.net/ - development information about that package is at https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/simile-timeline

[jonassmedegaard]

Possibly most interesting for someone outside Debian is to explore the patches applied as part of the Debian packaging - some of those might be helpful more generally: https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/simile-timeline/-/tree/debian/master/debian/patches
