apps compilation fails on ubuntu 20.04

[Kevin Rushforth]

I still need to catch up on my email, since I still have the original 
question in my queue.

The answer to the original query is that there is a known bug with ant 
1.10.7 [1] that will cause this error. You can either use ant 1.10.5 
(which is the one we specify in build.properties) or use ant 1.10.8.

As for the gradle sdk problem, I've not seen any problems relating to 
using gradle 7.0.1. Is your repo up to date? Specifically, you need the 
following commit:

https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/commit/111bac4180a646662a81223bdbb56880789d5a90
