#62 stuck, install step 3.1

[Rob C]

Hello to whomever is reading,

I am new to both UBUNTU and PeerGuardian. Please, if any of these questions seem elementary it's because, they are. However, I am very familiar with windows computers and networks. I am trying to break into the Linux world for some added enjoyment and networking opportunities.

1. When I unpacked the compressed folder I originally downloaded, the system defaulted to saving it in the same folder as the compressed version,(downloads folder). Do I need to move the (pgl-2.3.0 folder) to a different location in order to make the install work?

2. I moved ahead with the install just to see if I could get it to work. I am able to get to step 3.1 in the 'install.txt' file that comes in the pgl-2.3.0 folder that was unpacked. I read the configure help file and determined that I needed to input,

rbcmp007@LINK:~/Downloads/pgl-2.3.0$ ./configure \

--sysconfdir=/etc \
--localstatedir=/var \
--with-lsb=/lib/lsb/init-function

---

After executing the configure program with the above settings, I get an error at the very end that I am not sure about. it reads...

---

checking for strstr... yes
checking for libnetfilterqueue... no

configure: error: Package requirements (libnetfilter_queue) were not met:
No package 'libnetfilter_queue' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables libnetfilterqueue_CFLAGS
and libnetfilterqueue_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details."

---

What should I do to correct this error? Is there a command I need to add to my configure tree to set the folder that is missing? Or do I need to download a package to a specific folder etc. ?

I added two of the logs I found for the program as attachments. If they are the wrong ones please let me know so I can find the right file.

Those are my questions for the time being.
Thanks

Just use the pre-built packages, follow https://sourceforge.net/p/peerguardian/wiki/pgl-Install-DebianUbuntu/.

Or if you really want to build from source install the missing development headers, e.g.

sudo apt install libnetfilter-queue-dev
