I am running BackBox Linux version 4.6.

Trying to install GdMap version 0.8.1.

I've entered:

./configure

and then:

make

and this is what I got:

make all-recursive make1: Entering directory /home/wh1t3ni9ht/Desktop/New Folder/gdmap-0.8.1'
Making all in src

What should I do?

    first off, it may not be the best idea to store the sources in New Folder, as it contains space – Vlastimil Burián Jan 28 '17 at 13:47
  • @Vlastimil That should make no difference when building something underneath it. – Kusalananda Jan 28 '17 at 14:05
  • @Kusalananda I suppose it should not as you say. I better rephrase that: I would only suggest not to use directory names containing space as this is a bad habit under Linux systems. Nothing more, but nothing less. – Vlastimil Burián Jan 28 '17 at 14:44
  • @Vlastimil Sorry to be a bit pedantic, and to further derail from the topic, but it's not a bad habit to use spaces in filenames on Unix. What is a bad habit is not quoting ones variables in shell scripts to be able to deal with such filenames. In this case I think the error comes from using the wrong version of GTK library, compiler or other component of the toolchain (but I don't know which, because the question doesn't specify very many details). – Kusalananda Jan 28 '17 at 15:01

    How did u install GTK, did you compiled it? If you did then you need to specify a path. You may try sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev – Luka Jan 28 '17 at 16:59
  • @Luka I typed sudo apt-get install gtk2.0 in the terminal – Wh1t3 Ni9ht Jan 28 '17 at 17:45
  • Did you tried running ./configure again? Can you paste whole output this time. – Luka Jan 28 '17 at 17:47
  • Do you have Synaptic Package manager? You can install gdmap from there. Or simply running

    sudo apt-get install gdmap -y

  • @Luka I tried sudo apt-get install gdmap -y and it worked thank you very much but can you tell me more about the make command and why it's not working – Wh1t3 Ni9ht Jan 28 '17 at 17:55
  • @Luka This is the error after i enter ./configure and then make: – Wh1t3 Ni9ht Jan 28 '17 at 17:58

    I really can't tell... It should tell you which dependencies are missing ... There is not reason to use make if the program is available in Ubuntu repository, especially if you are new in linux.. please accept my answer if it worked. Thank you.

You can install GdMap from Terminal

sudo apt-get install gdmap -y

-y parameter automatically accepts dependencies.
