+Actually I had missed the snapshot date change
+
+On 2011-06-29, it was updated from 20011111 to 20041010 by gil,
+changing the spec a lot including a new dependency on omquery which
+was never uploaded
+
+The package is dead in Fedora and they removed the support for it in
+ws-jaxme with http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/ws-jaxme.git/tree/ws-jaxme-remove-xmldb.patch
