Hello Stackoverflowers!
I am trying to build the OpenJDK with OpenJ9 on Linux, but when I run the configure script, I get the error:
configure: error: Could not find numa!
Normally it should have just created the config and let me build, because I don't have multiple CPUs.
I have already googled the error message and looked trough and followed the documentation on the projects Github(https://github.com/ibmruntimes/openj9-openjdk-jdk17/blob/openj9/doc/building.md and https://github.com/eclipse-openj9/openj9/blob/master/doc/build-instructions/Build_Instructions_V17.md).
Here is the command I used:
bash configure --with-boot-jdk=/home/USER/bootjdk16
Here is the complete output if needed:
configure: Configuration created at Sun Nov 21 14:08:05 CET 2021.

Thank you in advance!
It looks like I didn't install the package "numactl" for some reason.
Just double check if you have those packages installed with (On Archbased)
sudo pacman -Q numactl
(On Debainbased)
sudo dpkg -l numactl-devel
