Default gradle builds broken? - possibly scripts null

Short description of the issue/suggestion:
Building even simplest project in latest gradle seems broken.

Steps to reproduce the issue/enhancement:

1. git clone https://github.com/ryanhamilton/buildbroken
2. cd buildbroken
3. gradlew package

THis has the simplest possible modern gradle config. i.e.

buildscript {
    repositories {         mavenCentral()     }
    dependencies {         classpath 'io.github.fvarrui:javapackager:1.6.6'     }
}

apply plugin: 'io.github.fvarrui.javapackager.plugin'
javapackager {     mainClass = 'gdemo.App' }

I know if I add a specific task, that will provide the script defaults etc. and will work but that wasn't what I expected to happen. Should it be?

What is the expected behavior?

Works.

What is the current behavior?

Do you have outputs, screenshots, demos or samples which demonstrate the problem or enhancement?

Hi @ryanhamilton!

Yes, there's a bug in the default task for Gradle, sorry! scripts property initialization is missing. I've just fixed in JavaPackager 1.6.7-SNAPSHOT branch issue-213. Please, try it and give me some feddback, thanks!

PS: since 1.6.7 is a SNAPSHOT version, you have to install it manually to your local repo. There are instructions in README.

Branch issue-213 merged into devel.
