I am having a hard time getting gvim to compile on Ubuntu 16.04 When I run this:
./configure --enable-gui checking for X... (cached) no checking if X11 header files can be found... yes checking --enable-gui argument... no GUI support checking for X11/SM/SMlib.h... (cached) no This is a standard install of Ubuntu (in a VM), running the dfeault GUI comes with Ubuntu (Unity). I have tried just about everything I can think to get the required support. sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get build-dep vim sudo apt-get build-dep vim-gtk sudo apt-get install git sudo apt-get install build-essentials sudo apt-get install vim-gnome sudo apt-get install libncursesw5-dev sudo apt-get update /var/tmp/user0/vim8_from_git/vim8# ./configure --enable-gui | grep gui checking --enable-gui argument... no GUI support /var/tmp/user0/vim8_from_git/vim8# apt build-dep vim Reading package lists... Done E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list sudo apt-get update If this does not fix the issue, edit /etc/apt/sources.list, e.g. using sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list and ensure that the deb-src lines are not commented out. sudo apt upgrade sudo apt -get build-dep vim sudo apt -get build-dep vim-gtk I can't really think what else to try to install to get the GUI support.
