Yes, it's a mistake.
I missed this symlink during migration to "Maven-Repo-Helper".

BTW, I think there was a classpath conflict between :
/usr/share/ant/lib/junit4.jar (4.7)
and
/usr/share/ant/lib/junit.jar (3.8.7)
Both provides junit.* classes.

Are you sure having both of them auto-loaded by Ant is the right thing to
do ?

Cheers,
