Hello,

I have applied for DSpace 7.6.x (https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/11678) and the build is failing with the following:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.14.0:compile (default-compile) on project dspace-api: Compilation failure: Compilation failure:
[ERROR] /usr/local/dspace/DSpace-dspace-7.6.5/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/importer/external/epo/service/EpoImportMetadataSourceServiceImpl.java:[32,46] error: package org.apache.jena.ext.xerces.impl.dv.util does not exist

[ERROR]   symbol:   variable Base64
[ERROR]   location: class EpoImportMetadataSourceServiceImpl

Any idea what I am missing?

Thanks,
