Important: gcc Compatibility with Ubuntu 16.04

Vertica 9.0.1-9 and later 9.0 hotfixes now support Ubuntu 16.04.

However, Ubuntu 16.04 ships with a compiler that is incompatible with the Vertica C++ SDK. To compile UDxs on this platform, you must install packages for 4.8 compatibility:

$ sudo apt-get remove g++ 
$ sudo apt-get remove gcc 

$ sudo apt-get install gcc-4.8 
$ sudo apt-get install g++-4.8 

$ cd /usr/bin 
$ sudo ln -s ./gcc-4.8 gcc 
$ sudo ln -s ./g++-4.8 g++  

To test your environment, install the packages used by the SDK examples (if you haven't already) and then compile the examples:

$ sudo apt-get install libbz2-dev 
$ sudo apt-get install libghc-zlib-dev 
$ sudo apt-get install libboost-dev 
$ sudo apt-get install libghc-curl-dev 

$ cd /opt/vertica/sdk/examples 
$ sudo make
