What Unix O/S is it?

Speaking generically if you don't have the access rights to write to a directory then you can't. You can use the command 'sudo' (see man pages) to temporarily become superuser bypassing security if the system administrator has granted you access to that command.

"jil" looks like a Java command meaning "Java Intermediate Language". Are you operating a Java environment?

NAME
jh_setupenvironment - Prepares a build environment to compile an eclipse feature. SYNOPSIS
jh_setupenvironment [debhelperoptions] [--pde-build-dir=dir] [copy[...]] DESCRIPTION
jh_setupenvironment is a javahelper program that handles creating an environment for building an eclipse feature. It does not setup an orbit dir (use jh_generateorbitdir for that). It will copy files specified in debian/eclipse.environment as well as those given on command line into the environment dir. If no files are given per command line and the environment file is not present (or is empty), it will default to "org.eclipse.*" FILES
debian/eclipse.environment List of file- and directory glob patterns to copy into the build environment. OPTIONS
--pde-build-dir=dir Specifies where the environment should be or is placed. --clean If passed, jh_setupenvironment will clean up the build environment. When cleaning jh_setupenvironment will not record itself in the debhelper log to avoid confusing dh, when it has to use the log to trace where it was. EXAMPLE
jh_setupenvironment org.eclipse.* debian/*.properties Will clone all files and folders starting with "org.eclipse." and all property files in the debian-folder and put them into the environment. SEE ALSO
debhelper(7) This program is a part of javahelper and uses debhelper as backend. There are also tutorials in /usr/share/doc/javahelper. AUTHOR
