Hi all,

This is probably a bit of a n00b question. However someone here might know the answer to this. When I try to build JDK 8 on Fedora 16 I'm getting the link error below. The environment variables I have set are: ALLOW_DOWNLOADS=true ALT_BOOTDIR=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk LANG=C

BTW I do have the latest libstdc++ installed: $ sudo yum install libstdc++ Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit Setting up Install Process Package libstdc++-4.6.2-1.fc16.i686 already installed and latest version Nothing to do

Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks,

David
