compile issue

[cinterloper]

Hey there, im really excited about using this, but im having a bit of trouble getting started

im using terra 2016-03-25 , with jdk 8 installed. ive tried this in both ubuntu 16.04 and fedora 24
when i run build.sh i get

+ terra ./terra-java/examples/extension/native.t
In file included from <buffer>:1:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-openjdk//include/jni.h:45:10: fatal error: 'jni_md.h' file not found
#include "jni_md.h"
         ^
attempting to use an opaque type {&int32} -> int32 where the layout of the type is needed
stack traceback:
        [C]: in function 'error'
        src/terralib.lua:1475: in function 'reportopaque'
        src/terralib.lua:1559: in function 'complete'
        src/terralib.lua:1568: in function <src/terralib.lua:1553>

        [C]: in function 'require'
        ./terra-java/types.t:8: in main chunk
        [C]: in function 'require'
        ./terra-java.t:1: in main chunk
        [C]: in function 'require'
        ./terra-java/examples/extension/native.t:1: in main chunk

I attempted to get around this by copying jni_md.h into the search path, but hit another road block

[root@fd777f7ee52a terra-java-master]# ln /usr/lib/jvm/java-openjdk//include/linux/jni_md.h /usr/lib/jvm/java-openjdk//include
[root@fd777f7ee52a terra-java-master]# bash build.sh 
+ rm -rf ./obj
+ mkdir ./obj
+ find ./terra-java -name '*.java'
+ xargs javac -d ./obj
+ terra ./terra-java/examples/extension/native.t
LLVM ERROR: Program used external function 'JNI_GetDefaultJavaVMInitArgs' which could not be resolved!
[root@fd777f7ee52a terra-java-master]# 

any advice you could offer would be appreciated
