Hi JDK build folks,
Since yesterday I am having trouble to build the JDK 8 on a machine
where I have been building it OK for months. There is some new
configure error with freetype, see below. My build system is running
Ubuntu 12.04. I have not updated any system packages lately as far as
I can remember.
I see in the log there were some changes to freetype configure
handling this week.
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8001922
There is a fix for later gccs such as what your Ubuntu system has:
JDK-8027300 "configure should use LIBS instead of LDFLAGS when testing
freetype"

Check the email threads here:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2013-October/010867.html
The fix went into the jdk8/build forest about two hours ago:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/build/rev/72ef61df77e5
Hope this helps-
Tim
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Eric

I do have a version of freetype, and I have never before had to add a
"--with-freetype" on linux:
$ dpkg --list | grep freetyp
ii libfreetype6 2.4.8-1ubuntu2.1
FreeType 2 font engine, shared library files
