    Hello,

    probably there is something missing in your machine.

    Please make sure that all the following packs are installed:

    $ sudo apt-get update

    $ sudo apt-get upgrade

    $ sudo apt-get install phablet-tools sed wget cvs subversion git-core coreutils unzip texi2html texinfo libsdl1.2-dev docbook-utils gawk python-pysqlite2 diffstat help2man make gcc build-essential g++ desktop-file-utils chrpath libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev mercurial autoconf automake groff libtool xterm lib32z1

    Furthermore, If your host is running 64bit:

    $ sudo apt-get install ia32-libs lib32stdc++6

    Hope this might help.

    Thank you
