I am not using the BBB VM image. I have BBB running along side my
Moodle development environment. Apache/Moodle is on port 80 and nginx/
BBB are on port 81.

I had to grab the ant packages and manually download Flex 3.5 from
adobe.
too install flex I followed these instructions
http://stevelove.org/2009/05/14/how-to-install-and-set-up-adobe-flex-sdk-on-ubuntu-linux/

so now I have a /opt/flex folder and the "mxmlc --help" command
worked.

running "ant" in /bigbluebutton-client errors out saying "Could not
load definitions from resource flexTasks.tasks" and then a bunch of
other stuff/
running "ant -lib /opt/flex/ant/lib" gets farther but eventually
complains about FLEX_HOME not being defined?

How do I fix this?

Hi SWiT,

export FLEX_HOME="<path-to-flex-dir>"

Also, another error that could appear is about PermGen and you solve setting this var (just in case):
export ANT_OPTS="-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m"

Hi SWiT,

Without going through all the steps to setup your development
environment, could you try running a BigBlueButton VM (which is
preconfigured with a working development environment) and use it as a
reference example for getting your environment setup?

For example, you could see in the VM how we defined FLEX_HOME to work.

By iterating through the differences, you'll end up with a working
development environment on your machine.

Regards,... Fred
