Attempted to install Codeblocks on Ubuntu 8.04. Got the following error message:

I followed the following instructions to the letter:
1. Install the dependencies and compiler tools
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install libwxgtk2.8-dev wx-common libgtk2.0-dev
2. Download the source code
Get the source from the official website, here, next uncompress it using:
tar -xjf codeblocks-8.02-src.tar.bz2
3. Compile it
Change the working directory to codeblocks-8.02-src and issue as usual:
./configure
make
sudo make install
Installation failed on make step
