Make error and "libpthread.so.0: DSO missing from command line"

Question

I tried to set up bochs-2.6.2 in Ubuntu. First, I unpack Bochs from .tar file to home/userName/Downloads/bochs-2.6.2.

Then I use the configure command:

./configure --prefix=/home/userName/Desktop/bochs --enable-debugger --enable-disasm \
--enable-iodebug --enable-x86-debugger --with-x --with-x11

After that, I use make ( there are too many character, this body is limited 30000 characters )

last, I use sudo make install and get following messages

    make[1]: Entering directory '/home/eecheng/Downloads/bochs-2.6.2/memory'
    make[1]: 'libmemory.a' is up to date.
    make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/eecheng/Downloads/bochs-2.6.2/memory'
    echo done
    done
    cd gui && \
    make  libgui.a

But I got error messages recipe for target 'bochs' failed:

Makefile 179: recipe for target 'bochs' failed
make: ***[bochs] error 1

I tried both create a bochs folder under Desktop or not.

Are there any suggestion? Thanks a lot!

Here is your problem: *`libpthread.so.0: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line`*. Add `-pthread` to your `CFLAGS` and `CXXFLAGS`. Autotools should be adding it for you. Maybe you should file a bug report against Bochs for not adding the flag. Also see [Significance of -pthread flag when compiling](https://stackoverflow.com/q/2127797/608639), [libpthread.so.0: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line](https://stackoverflow.com/q/19901934/608639) and [Undefined reference to symbol 'pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.2.5'](https://stackoverflow.com/q/34143265/608639). — jww, Mar 28 '19 at 14:04
Here is your bug report: [-pthread missing from compile and link command](https://github.com/dariaphoebe/bochs/issues/1). I assume that is the repo you got the tar ball from. — jww, Mar 28 '19 at 14:16
By the way, your `LDFLAGS` should include `-L/home/userName/Desktop/bochs/lib -Wl,-R,/home/userName/Desktop/bochs/lib -Wl,--enable-new-dtags`. Autotools does not add them for you. — jww, Mar 28 '19 at 14:18
sorry, I have no idea about reference you gave, where I need to add -pthread to my CFLAGS? in my makefile? or some command? thanks. — Steven, Mar 28 '19 at 14:29
I add `CFLAGS=-pthread` in head of makefile and then `make` again, but still fail — Steven, Mar 28 '19 at 14:48
