Installation error for rJava on Ubunutu 20.04 LT #28

Description

I just tried to update my rJava on my Ubuntu 20.04 LT desktop, running R 4.1.1. openjdk 11.0.11 2021-04-20 is installed.

The error reported was:

gcc -std=gnu99 -o libjri.so Rengine.o jri.o Rcallbacks.o Rinit.o globals.o rjava.o -shared -L/usr/lib/jvm/default-java/lib/server -ljvm -Wl,--export-dynamic -fopenmp -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro -L/usr/lib/R/lib -lR -lpcre2-8 -llzma -lbz2 -lz -lrt -ldl -lm -licuuc -licui18n

ERROR: compilation failed for package ‘rJava’

  • removing ‘/home/larry/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/4.1/rJava’
  • restoring previous ‘/home/larry/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/4.1/rJava’
    Warning in install.packages :
    installation of package ‘rJava’ had non-zero exit status

Does one need a regular Oracle JDK, or is openJDK 11.0.11 supposed to work?

Thanks for the help in getting this update installed.
