Yes, it's a known problem I commented here #124

You can't repo on a /mnt folder but it will work on /home folder. Another thing is compiling Android. Right now there are problems with java compilation so you will need to wait for a future build to achieve that.

whats the issue with java? oracle jre seems to work great

[onomatopellan]

There are plenty of problems with java compiler on Anniversary Update. #746 #566
#541

[dreamss]

kernel compiled great, had some issues that needing fixing but java was not one of them

is there a thread dedicated to building android?

newest error Argument list too long

[aseering]

I'm not aware of a single thread. Lots of little scattered threads, though; starting again whenever someone files a new bug.

You might consider starting one here: http://wsl-forum.qztc.io/ Then discussion on new bugs can be redirected to one place.

@dreamss - As others have pointed there have been many bugfixes since the build this was reported on. Could you please retry this on Creator's Update or later and let us know if you are still encountering issues?
