The immediate cause of the build failure is a missing 'libalias' entry in all/build.xml. But the alias in question was removed by Levente a few days ago. So I suspect that the real problem is that you simply need to run "build clean" to get rid of old build artifacts that causing the build to break.

Whenever you get a mysterious build failure, it is always a good idea to run "build clean" and the retry the build before doing anything else. Especially if you this is your first build since an SVN update ...
