How To Compile FlowPlayer on Ubuntu 8.04

Here is how I compiled FlowPlayer on Hardy:

sudo apt-get install ant
sudo apt-get install java-gcj-compat-dev
#without java-gcj-compat-dev, ant throws this error: Unable to locate tools.jar. Expected to find it in /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-gcj-4.2-1.5.0.0/lib/tools.jar
 
sudo apt-get install mtasc
 
#need old version of swfmill; version in repo is 0.2.12
wget http://swfmill.org/releases/swfmill-0.2.11.tar.gz
tar xvzf swfmill-0.2.11.tar.gz
cd swfmill-0.2.11
./configure
make
#install in /usr/local/bin
sudo make install
 
cd ..
wget http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/flowplayer/flowplayer-2.2-src.zip
unzip flowplayer-2.2-src.zip
cd flowplayer-src
emacs build.properties #edit DEPLOY_DIR
ant
