you probably need to install some more packages in order for
your operating system to be able to build emacs:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install build-essential
sudo apt build-dep emacs

before building emacs.  Otherwise ask a search engine "how
to build emacs on ubuntu" and you will get loads of helpful
links, like this one:

Ciao; Gregor
