The 5.5 make file fails with this error:
copying jhove schema file
/bin/cp ../../conf/jhove/jhoveConfig.xsd dvinstall
make: *** No rule to make target ../../conf/solr/8.8.1/schema_dv_mdb_copies.xml', needed by dvinstall/schema.xml'. Stop.
This is apparently due to a dependency on the recently removed schema_dv_mdb_copies.xml, see #7865 . This was manually fixed by temporarily adding back the file to produce the 5.5 dvinstall.zip but the dependency needs to be fixed/removed.
