you have some missing dependencies for

  • xz-devel
  • bzip2-devel

you can solve this by 

sudo apt-get install libbz2-dev xz-utils

  • Hi, Danny thanks for answering, but I am using linux Mint, that is based in Ubuntu. So how Can I install this dependencies? I think that is not possible using yum. – kizus Sep 19 '18 at 01:18
  • Hi Danny, thanks for everything. From your answer I could figure out the proper line command that is: sudo apt-get install libbz2-dev xz-utils. But again thank you very much. – kizus Sep 19 '18 at 01:57

    @kizus you're welcome, may I recommend to add a tag linux Mint to your question. I'll update answer accordingly. – Danny Sep 19 '18 at 02:46
