Description:
The documentation on how to install MySQL Connector/J from source contains a wrong ant command. Under step 6, the listed command is "ant dist": https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/8.0/en/connector-j-installing-source.html

Executing "ant dist" leads to the following error message:

BUILD FAILED
Target "dist" does not exist in the project "MySQL Connector/J".

The correct ant command is "ant package".

How to repeat:
Follow the instructions to install MySQL Connector/J locally from source: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/8.0/en/connector-j-installing-source.html

Execute "ant dist" in step 6.

Suggested fix:
Replace "ant dist" with "ant package" in the documentation.
