Resolved by adding another package, though I did not know how to figure out
which "optional task" package to get, so I just kept trying different ones...
There must be a better way.
$ urpmi ant-nodeps
$ ant
...
[javac] 25 warnings
jar:
[jar] Building jar:
/home/data/svn/gridarta/crossfire/CrossfireEditor.jar
[delete] Deleting directory
/home/data/svn/gridarta/crossfire/class/production
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
$ java -jar CrossfireEditor.jar
Bingo.
