Hi Paul,

that is not correct, you do not have all the necessary prerequisites. Quoted from the WSJT-X source tarball INSTALL file:

Installation
============

To  build WSJT-X  from sources  you need  some prerequisite  tools and
libraries.

On Linux:

   build-essentials
   gcc-4.8.2 or clang-3.4 or newer
   g++-4.8.2 or clang-3.4 or newer
   gfortran-4.8.2 or newer
   CMake-2.8.9 or newer
   git
   svn
   asciidoc

   *Qt5.5 or newer*, qt5libmultimedia-dev,  qt5libserialport-dev,  and
   their  prerequisites   libfftw3-single-dev  and   its  prerequsites
   libusb-0.1-dev.  Note that  these are  Debian style  package names,
   other distributions  will have different package  names and package
   contents.

My emphasis, the version of Qt required changed for WSJT-X v2.0.0. Ubuntu 14.04 only has Qt v5.2.1. I strongly suggest you upgrade you Linux version. Either 16.04 LTS or 18.04 LTS are fine. Ubuntu 14.04 is EOL quite soon.
