Description
Ideally, the build should be independent from the Gradle version installed on the system. Furthermore, the build should work in the absence of the gradle runtime.
The issue can be easily solved by introduction of a custom wrapper script. Apache Bigtop is doing this for years, facilitating more controllable build environment.
Existing wrapper script requires a jar file to be checked in to the source code, which creates a problem during release times, as the binary file has to be included into source-only Apache release.
