Greetings.

I use ditaa with org on a regular basis. Now that ditaa.jar is out of
org 9.5, I need to cope with the situtation.

I see two options, and neither was successful today. This is sort of
what I was afraid of when I voted for keeping ditaa bundled with org.

1. I am running Fedora 34, where ditaa is available as a
   package. However, just pointing org-ditaa-jar-path to the correct
   location /usr/share/java/ditaa.jar is not sufficient, because doing
   so leads to errors when trying to execute a ditaa babel block:

   Error: Unable to initialize main class org.stathissideris.ascii2image.core.CommandLineConverter
   Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/cli/ParseException

   Taking a look at what the system binary "ditaa" does, I found the
   following shell script:

   # -----------------------------------------------------------------
   #!/usr/bin/bash
   #

   source /usr/share/java-utils/java-functions

   MAIN_CLASS=org.stathissideris.ascii2image.core.CommandLineConverter
   BASE_JARS="ditaa commons-cli xml-commons-apis batik"

   set_classpath $BASE_JARS

   run "$@"
   # -----------------------------------------------------------------

   Has anyone successfully fed all these parameters to ob-ditaa?

2. Ditaa is available via github at
   https://github.com/stathissideris/ditaa

   The developer section points to building with some clojure build
   system lein, which is not available in my system, and in Fedora,
   running

   dnf list available '*lein*'

   gives me nothing useful.

   There are, however, ant build files available in ditaa repo under
   build. Then again, running ant with any parameters I could think of
   leads to the error

   BUILD FAILED
   /home/jarmo/src/ditaa/build/build.xml:6: The following error occurred while executing this line:
   /home/jarmo/src/ditaa/build/release.xml:67: /home/jarmo/src/ditaa/lib does not exist.

   Has anyone succesfully compiled ditaa for use with org?

Have fun and stay safe.

Jarmo
