 I installed sbt, downloaded the LiftWeb demo project from here
 [http://github.com/lift/lift_sbt_prototype/tarball/Lift_20] unpacked and
 run "sbt update".

 It returned this message:
 {{{
 [info] Building project Lift SBT Tempalte 0.1 against Scala 2.7.7
 [info]    using LiftProject with sbt 0.7.4 and Scala 2.7.7

 }}}

 Then I found that even a simple sbt --help was giving the same problem.

 Using the jar downloaded from the official sbt page
 [http://code.google.com/p/simple-build-tool/downloads/detail?name=sbt-
 launch-0.7.4.jar] it works.
