OS: Linux Mint 18.2 Cinnamon 64-bit.

I would like to compile the following:

p7zip_16.02_src_all.tar.bz2

with SHA256:

5eb20ac0e2944f6cb9c2d51dd6c4518941c185347d4089ea89087ffdd6e2341f

I extracted it as follows:

tar -xjf p7zip_16.02_src_all.tar.bz2

I read README file, specifically, that I need to replace the makefile with my machine's equivalent:

According to your OS, copy makefile.linux,
makefile.freebsd, makefile.cygwin, ...
 over makefile.machine

So I did:

cp makefile.linux_amd64 makefile.machine

It also says it is possible to build in parallel, in my case of 8 cores:

If you want to make a parallel build on a 4 cpu machine : make -j 4 TARGET

So I did:

make -j 8 all_test

With the result:

Everything is Ok

Now, I would like to proceed further, but:

make -j 8 depend

this throws errors:

fatal error: wx/wxprec.h: No such file or directory

So, I searched for a package that contains the header file:

apt-file search wxprec.h

which says:

wx3.0-headers: /usr/include/wx-3.0/wx/wxprec.h

So, I installed that package:

sudo apt-get install wx3.0-headers

but it still throws the same error.

You need to build the dependencies before make command :

sudo apt-get build-dep p7zip

It will install the missing dependencies.

sudo apt-get install libwxgtk3.0-dev

did the trick.
