Re: [Bug-XBoard] Error on ./configure

[Tim Mann]

It looks like you don't have enough packages installed on your Ubuntu
system to be able to compile and link any programs.  This is not an
xboard issue.

Try doing "apt-get install build-essential".  That should get you
farther.  Generally, though, it's up to you to install all the packages
on your system that are needed to build a program...
