Make OpenNMS compile on Apple Silicon

Description

I received a MacBook Air M1 yesterday and of course I was pretty curious if it is possible to compile OpenNMS on it. I installed all my common development stuff on it, compiled and installed jicmp and jicmp6 and installed an OpenJDK 8 build for M1. This is what I used so far:

  • IntelliJ IDEA -> native M1 binaries available

  • JDK -> native M1 builds available (Azul Zulu Builds of OpenJDK)

  • Homebrew -> seems to work fine

  • jicmp -> compiles and installs

  • jicmp6 -> compiles and installs

  • Postgres -> works fine using Rosetta 2

When I now compile OpenNMS, all seems to work fine but unfortunately the build fails with the package org.opennms.core.web-assets:

The problem is, that the plugin uses the darwin-arm64 architecture for the download which does not exist yet. This is already reported to the plugin developer and it is fixed in v1.11.0. So, I changed the version in the root pom.xml and finally OpenNMS compiles and also runs fine.
