We also build Flex applications on Linux ... the only thing you actually can't do is have FlexUnit tests run in the Flashplayer or using The Air Debug Launcher ...

No need to be an ant guru ! This will get you a functioning Apache Flex SDK on Linux. It would be interesting to see how you get on with Scratch.
