Errors on Building 1.5.3

[nekoshota]

Hello, I am a user of Wings3D and I am new to building software from source. I am running Ubuntu 13.10 on a 32bit laptop.

My process so far has been to install the following software from the Ubuntu repos:
erlang
libsdl1.2-dev
freeglut3-dev
libglu1-mesa-dev
rebar
erland-esdl
erland-esdl-dev
nvidia-opencl-dev

but since I was afraid that was insufficient, I went ahead and also followed the instructions inside of "BUILD.unix"

In my attempt to follow the build instructions, I managed to make it as far as to building Wings3D itself, but I got this error when trying to use make:

Code:

I don't know what to do now, or what I might be missing to build wings3d 1.5.3 correctly, and at this point I am in need of help.

A newer erlang (i.e. 17.0) is required for 1.5.3 and current master.

If you are going to build it yourself, do your self a favor and get all the erlang sources from github.

Setup a dir ~/src
get (and build) esdl wings cl and set ERL_LIBS=~/src
is the easiest way.

PS: If do not want to build erlang your self it might be available here https://www.erlang-solutions.com/downloa...erlang-otp
