Comment 1 huishan.zhou 2001-09-13 16:52:01 UTC
compile error from i18n, need optional.jar 
I searched and got two optional.jar: ant_1_3-optional.jar and 
ant_1_4-optional.jar 
I tried each one by putting it in $ANT_HOME/lib as instructed.
I got "BUILD FAIL".

the use needs to grab the ant optional.jar.
instructions sent to user.
