Description
I install & set groovy, but I always get:
> groovy
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/cli/CommandLineParser

I looked into script and find out that it do not include all needed jar files. This diff worked for me

- Create the final classpath. Setting a classpath using the -cp or -classpath option means not to use the
- global classpath. Groovy behaves then the same as the java interpreter

I think the problem is actually with your installation and not the script. The script simply bootstraps the Groovy runtime system which then loads the jars in $GROOVY_HOME/lib. The change to the script that you propose is not and should not be needed.
Clearly we need to find out why you are having this problem but this issue will almost certainly have to be marked as "Won't Fix".
