Since we generate JavaDoc in the Tycho build as part of a "generate-resource" step, that means that we have a dependency on BUILT artifacts during first build. So on a clean Maven repo, build fails because artifacts do not exist yet to generate JavaDoc. Some improvements in CI jobs configuration at hudson.eclipse.org made these jobs failing. I´ll work on using a profile for Javadoc, so that Javadoc could be disabled when necessary. However, this is a source of mistakes, we'll need to be very careful with it (write a Unit test?) to ensure "real" builds will contain JavaDoc.
Builds seem to be back on rail. I let this bug open in order to provide a Unit test verifying the contribution of Javadoc.
We don't use Javadoc any more, See bug 396056
