Actually, this is a Catalina dependency. The README file says "Try to run
Catalina, to see if everything is correctly set up", so the error will occur
here.
I'll add something telling to refer to the Catalina's README file for
Catalina related build issues.

You can use the "dist" target for that, but that's ok since it should not be
needed by Slide.

I'm a bit out of sync with Avalon right now. 2.1 has bugs (and doesn't run
because of that), 2.2 is a bit too new right now.
You should run with Catalina instead.

That's an Ant issue. Basically, it's a problem with the style taskdef I'm
using.
Either :
- Install Xalan or XSL:P on your system and bootstrap Ant again
- Edit the dependencies of "catalina-dist" target in build.xml and remove
"doc" from the list.

Sorry ! I guess if Ant doesn't find any XSL processor, it shouldn't raise an
error but just skip the task ;-)
