[Building Sakai] Who is using the Search Tool?

[Steve Swinsburg]

We also hit this. The version of commons-lang is actually 2.1 in older versions of 2.6 but needs to be 2.2+ for that class to be included.
We've got some undeploy and deploy poms to remove things and deploy newer ones, which means we don't need a custom kernel:

https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn//msub/anu.edu.au/alliance/2.6.x/extra-undeploy/pom.xml
https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn//msub/anu.edu.au/alliance/2.6.x/extra-deploy/

Feel free to take.

cheers,
Steve

This is fixed in the upcoming 2.6.3 release (which will include the post 2.6 search)
