Could you be more specific about which program failed?  The GNU
fileutils is a large collection of programs.  Without some information
about which program failed it will be impossible to determine a cause.

If the problem was in Java then you have reported the problem to the
wrong folks.  No Java here.  Try to determine which Java you are using
and submit a report to that package's maintainer.

What product are you trying to install?

I think perhaps you are not having trouble with 'ln'.  The 'ln'
command makes links on the filesystem.  How other programs use those
links is unrelated.

Good luck!
