But don't despair, I'm downloading an Ubuntu 16.04, I'll setup a clean VM on VirtualBox and will put together step-by-step instructions from a clean system. I might take me a few days but it's in the best interest of the project to be easy to build. I use 3 different PCs to code: 2 are Linux and one Windows 10 where I generate the binaries to be published.
Last week I actually started looking into 'snap' packages and other similar tools to distribute newRPL on Linux as a standalone application, but that's months from becoming a reality.

Merry Christmas to you, I'll spend some time with my family now, but will be back!

Claudio: Enjoy a Merry Christmas with your family. I have a second computer with Ubutntu 14.04 installed on it, so I tried the compile instructions on that computer and it worked perfectly. I can confirm that the issue is related to the changes made to Ubuntu for the 16.04 LTS release. Thanks for the tip, Barry
