I updated my release and now also have the mkdir line, so it won't
protest there, but actually it still gives an error on a line some
lines before, to be exactly line 1173:
<junit printsummary="yes" haltonfailure="yes">
BUILD FAILED
/m0d/schra/bin/jmolcvs20070727/Jmol/build.xml:1173: Could not create
task or type of type: junit.
Ant could not find the task or a class this task relies upon.
The path to junit.jar seems correct, and I tried commenting stuff out
and back again, but nothing seems to help. I tried running in verbose,
it gave me this:

I have no clue as where to search for the answer, and the rather
cryptic messages ant is giving is not helping much. It would be nice
if it would tell me exactly which element is unknown. Anyway, I am
apparently not the only one who struggles with ant's meager error
messages:

But, just to be sure, I go down the list:

spelling seems ok

junit.jar is in the classpath, not sure if it is declared. How would I do that?

Should I rebuild ant? The junit.jar is already in the classpath?

ant -version
Apache Ant version 1.6.5 compiled on November 27 2006
What was used to make the build file? why doesn't ant check by itself?

This might be the case. How would I do that?

None of these are there, should they?

Well, it is.
So, does junit.jar needs declaration? and how and where?
I will just commit it as it is in the mean time, and hope someone with
more proficiency in ant can find the problem here.
