The regular expression matcher is found in the ant-optional package for Ubuntu, and installing that solves the problem.

sudo apt-get install ant-optional

For suse 11 it is little bit longer

1.what is your ant exact version ? in my case it was 1.7.0

download the rpm : in my case the package name was ant-apache-regexp-1.7.0-200.2.noarch.rpm
execute the following

rpm -i ant-apache-regexp-1.7.0-200.2.noarch.rpm
