I was initially running into a problem with the configure build giving an error about Ant.
checking if /usr/local/Cellar/ant/1.9.5/libexec/bin/ant works... configure: WARNING: Ant does not work - Some Java projects will not build! checking whether ant is >= 1.7.0... ./configure: line 22468: test: not /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM: integer expression expected configure: error: no, you need at least ant >= 1.7.0 I downgraded to Ant 1.8.4 and still I get the same issue. It is greater than 1.7.0 and 1.8.4 is sufficiently old enough at this point that I would expect it to work so is there something else that is the problem here? My JDK is 1.8.0_45. Can someone help me with this?
