The path is actually relative:
<import file="../project/build-common.xml"/>
The trouble is it points at the 'project' directly which available only
if one checks it out from SVN. This is not a big deal for those who work
with SVN, but may pose a problem for those who just get a source package
off the download page.
We had similar problems in JMeter with running Anakia from Eclipse and
Ant; this was solved by adding an Ant property that could be set as
needed to reach the required files.
Or it might be possible to adjust the contents of the source archive
so that it reflected the SVN layout?
