1. Find the Ubuntu package that includes the features you want in Vim. $ apt list | grep ^vim In your case, that would be vim-gtk3 2. Do one of the following. a) Have apt install dependencies automatically. $ sudo apt build-dep vim-gtk3 b) View the dependencies and install the ones you want or need manually. $ apt show vim-gtk3 | grep ^Depends For each <package> to be installed, run $ sudo apt install <package> 3. Execute $ make distclean $ ./configure <options the way you want> $ make $ sudo make install Without any options, configure will configure the build system for a huge build. That includes a GUI if GUI libraries are available. See ./configure --help :help 90.1 and search or scroll to the SELECTING FEATURES section. See also :help +feature-list Regards, Gary -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
