Looks like I guessed right.  It's not finding a library.
Where is the "correct" libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.6.so.0  find it
then add that location to the linker's search path.

The man page for "ldconfig" is a good source of information
about how to do this.  (In short edit /etc/ld.so.conf then run ldconfig.)

Every time this kind of issue comes up I use it to point out why
Kicad really does need to convert over to GNU Autoconf.  The
configure script _should _have tracked down the correct  version of
this library or told you that it couldn't and stopped.   I don't mind
doing the work but it seems there is no plans to switch over
