Hi,

I encountered an error around ant by using native2ascii. README.Debian
that included in ant package suggests me to "set the environment
variable JAVA_HOME to the installation directory of your JDK.".
However, this couldn't lead me to successful build. I succeeded as
following way instead:


failed:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/j2sdk1.4-sun/lib/tools.jar 
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      5092904 Mar 24 14:04 /usr/lib/j2sdk1.4-sun/lib/tools.jar
$ env JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/j2sdk1.4-sun ant
(snip)
BUILD FAILED
/home/XXX/YYY/build.xml:NN: Could not create task or type of type: native2ascii.

Ant could not find the task or a class this task relies upon.
(snip)

success:
$ env CLASSPASS=/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-nodeps.jar ant
(snip)
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 5 seconds


Would you please fix the description in README.Debian in next upload?
Or is there any other solution?
