   > this might indicate, that this runs as "dev" build. If that is the case, 
old caches are used and first step before reporting errors would be to clear 
the cache directory `$HOME/.cache/netbeans/dev`.
   
   That's certainly a possibility, and why it would be good to see the full log.
   
   A build from the source zip at 
https://nightlies.apache.org/netbeans/candidate/netbeans/ or from the git 
branch release260 will use `$HOME/.cache/netbeans/26-rc2`.  And 26-rc2 will 
show in the title bar of the IDE.  Unfortunately, with a git checkout, the 
build branding works with branching but not work with tags, so if you've 
checked out the `26-rc2` tag then the title bar will show DEV and the cache dir 
will be as above.  Likewise, a build from the source bundle that GitHub 
unfortunately makes available automatically on the 
https://github.com/apache/netbeans/releases/tag/26-rc2 page will show DEV and 
not function correctly.
   
   It's sometimes a good idea to run `ant bootstrap` before a full build to 
verify what version information is found before building.
