I've just installed Ubuntu 18.04 and am trying to install =
geda-gaf-1.10.0.
I got past the gamin errors I was getting but am now stuck at a new
error I cannot quite figure out.

After running:
sudo ./configure --prefix=3D/opt/geda/geda-gaf-1.10.0

All is well until I see:

checking for PYTHON... no
configure: error: Package requirements (python2 &gt;=3D 2.7) were not =
met:

No package 'python2' 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 PYTHON_CFLAGS
and PYTHON_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
configure: error: ./configure failed for xorn

At this point I am stumped.  Have looked at many resources but to no =
avail. Python
is at version 2.7.15.

Any help folks?

Thanks,
Roger Traylor
