Trying to improve x49gp

[Helix751]

Hi all. I know this is a rather old thread, but I can't find a better place to post this.

I'm trying to compile x49gp under Linux Mint 20.2 x64 but to no avail.

I followed each and every instruction on several git repositories (official and forks) but the thing still throws errors and refuses to compile.

Even the svn repositories had to be renamed because the ones stated in the instructions do not work apparently due to SVN URL convention changes.

The repos I have tried so far:

svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/x49gp/code x49gp
svn co https://github.com/chwdt/x49gp.git x49gp
git clone https://github.com/chwdt/x49gp.git
git clone https://github.com/datajerk/x49gp.git

and the installed libraries and dep packages:
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev

Any help would be appreciated.

(btw, it would be so useful to have this as a binary package somewhere)

Thanks in advance.
