Building Ant isn't too tough... Try building Firefox or any of the JDKs...that's a pain

Subject: Installing Ant is non-standard and stupid

This is a rant.

Why does Ant (at least the source distro) not install like *every other sane source distro on earth*, with "configure / make / make install". This is what users expect and enter by default. I'd rather not mess around having to read proprietary installation info (or in my case, guessing which script to run because there is no info on the website).


How does one build and install make from source?
