Thanks for reporting this. I removed all missing jars that are missing
in Debian from org.apache.ant/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF. This fix will be in
the next upload called 3.1.1-1 which will be uploaded to contrib this
week. Then it will take some days for the ftp-masters to accept or
reject it. I will also upload it to the above page you got this version
from.
Cheers,
Michael
