rules_java seem to not work with --nolegacy_external_runfiles flag #203

@Otter-man

Description

@Otter-man

The flag docs state:

# `.runfiles/wsname/external/repo` (in addition to `.runfiles/repo`). This reduces runfiles &
# sandbox creation times & prevents accidentally depending on this feature which may flip to off by
# default in the future. Note, some rules may fail under this flag, please file issues with the rule
# author.
# Docs: https://bazel.build/reference/command-line-reference#flag--legacy_external_runfiles

If the flag is added to .bazelrc, tests fail with java not found:
