Ubuntu Compile Help

Hi all, and thank you in advance for any help you can provide. After completely giving up on getting the Proxmark3 to work on Windows, I installed Linux Ubuntu and followed the instructions here: https://github.com/Proxmark/proxmark3/wiki/Ubuntu%20Linux. The last step in the instructions says to enter the proxmark3 directory and run the command 'make'. Below is what happens when I do this, and the resulting errors. I would appreciate any help. Thank you!

root@B:~# cd proxmark3
root@B:~/proxmark3# make
make -C client all

Hi,

The readline development package is missing. You can install it with the following command:
    apt-get install libreadline-dev

Re: Ubuntu Compile Help

Thank you, meter. I have spent a ton of time trying to read  through posts and wiki, and must be completely missing what I'm doing wrong. I trust that you are right, and will get back to reading through the posts. Glad to hear that it's been solved 100 times... that means there's hope. Sorry for the annoying questions, but I do appreciate the help.

Re: Ubuntu Compile Help

That said, I'd definitely appreciate a point in the right direction in which the  problem was solved. Still missing it! Thanks again.
