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.
