Thanks for asking this question here.. I have been shakin' my brain left and
right trying to come up with a suitable answer to Beata's question of which you
were asking.

Compiling "ANYTHING" in Ubuntu without the right knowledge and tools is like
pulling teeth from a baby.  (Enter my experience with several versions of
vice.)

Finally I got it to work and downloaded the requisite files (no, I had all the
right programa downloaded for vice) but not knowing that I need the
"Build-essential" portion of ubuntu that is not a standard download for install
during the install of Ubuntu or Kubuntu can frustrate completely.

This package include the gcc, make and many other tools one needs to make, then
install the resulting file.
