Thanks for raising the issues, I've just committed more detailed build
instructions and plan to add a few FAQ items to help guide future users.

The confusion started from your messages about dom4j and
commons-collection version 2.1. Those dependencies have not been used by
Jackrabbit for many months (did you have an old checkout or were you
building something else?), so your proposals for improving the
instructions were based on false assumptions.

BR,
