Hey I just want to say after toiling around the build for about 3 days I was successfully able to build from the source. I had to manually download files, soft link some libraries and had to be very patient to get it done though.
I thank everyone who was patient enough to guide me through the build and being tolerant of a newbie. About ANT_OPTS="-Xthough.ms256m -Xmx512m". I noticed it, but its not stressed as mandator, so I ignored it. And when that InvocationException occured I thought it was a library problem. I would've expected a Heap out of memory error. I had to consult you again when that occurred, if you remember. Also I had to run "ant fetch-depends" for common_resources to get log4cxx from svn. It would be great if this also can be automated. Thanks again to everyone who helped. I shall be on my way to run FreeCol now.
