I reported the same build failure also with Fedora 26 and its packaged Ant 1.10.1. See here for the 4 different environments I tried: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-239 The conclusion is that in those environments where the NetBeans build script is not compatible with the distribution's version of Ant (or wise-versa if you like), you can instead download the Apache Ant binary dist and use that, i.e.: export ANT_HOME=/opt/my-apache-ant-dist export PATH=$ANT_HOME/bin:$PATH Also as pointed out make sure to use a fresh clone and don't relay on the clean target.
