Hello,

I have attempted to build scala from source (both on sid and chroot) and
ran into the following issue:

BUILD FAILED
/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/build.xml:117: The following error occurred while
executing this line:
/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/build-ant-macros.xml:8: The following error occurred

(trimmed for brevity)

I would be glad if someone familiar with the build process could give it
a look.

Best,
