trying to run the simple case installation script from the "wxWidgets for GTK installation" page. $ mkdir buildgtk $ cd buildgtk $ ../configure --with-gtk $ make $ sudo make install $ sudo ldconfig The ../configure command mostly worked, however, it did produce several fatal errors (see examples below). Opening data: This file contains any messages produced by compilers while running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake. It was created by wxWidgets configure 3.2.9, which was generated by GNU Autoconf 2.69. Invocation command line was $ ../configure --with-gtk ## --------- ## ## Platform. ## ## --------- ## hostname = ken-Inspiron-518 uname -m = x86_64 uname -r = 6.14.0-37-generic uname -s = Linux uname -v = #37~24.04.1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Nov 20 10:25:38 UTC 2 Fatal error 1: configure:13468: gcc -V >&5 gcc: error: unrecognized command-line option '-V' gcc: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. configure:13479: $? = 1 Fatal error 2: configure:13468: gcc -qversion >&5 gcc: error: unrecognized command-line option '-qversion'; did you mean '--version'? gcc: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. configure:13479: $? = 1 Fatal error 3: configure:14621: gcc -E conftest.c conftest.c:10:10: fatal error: ac_nonexistent.h: No such file or directory 10 | #include <ac_nonexistent.h> | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. configure:14621: $? = 1 There are several other examples but I want to limit the size of this email. I would appreciate any advice you can give.
