Understood - I do recall reading that before :) So, it looks like there is a new dependency, ArduinoOTA ( https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/tree/master/libraries/ArduinoOTA) that would need to be built. Should the ant script be modified to do this? I'm also no Java expert either, any help is welcome :) The good news is that 1.8.9 (and the upcoming 1.8.10) builds from source without issue after removing the pre-built gcc and avr binaries. It still uploaded a blink sketch, so hopefully I removed the pre-built binaries correctly :D Next step, I think, is to bring everything into the debian package framework. I'll let you know if I make any progress, there.
