The build jar file does not contain the properties files required for I18N, resulting in NPE

I just came across this in Apache Tika in prep for our 1.27 release. As @DustinPT points out, https://github.com/jai-imageio/jai-imageio-core/blob/master/src/main/java/com/github/jaiimageio/impl/plugins/bmp/properties is not packaged with the jar.

Added a temporary workaround in Tika: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-4104

Thank you @DustinPT for the fix that we used as inspiration!
