Print Page - Builderror on wxGTK 2.8.7 on xubuntu 15.10 (wily)

I am following the tutorial for building CB at http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Code::Blocks_from_source_on_Linux (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Code::Blocks_from_source_on_Linux)
I fail at building wxGTK 2.8.7 on monodll_gsockgtk.o when including gsocket.h. Seems to be some dependencies that is not met by xUbuntu15.10 which uses glib-2.0. However, I am not to experienced on these things (I am trying to learn how to create CB plugins) and need some advices.

Hope someone is able to help based on the below dump.

I would try wxGTK-2.8.12 and see if that has the same error.
If yes, please post back.
Someone needs to update the Wiki page because I think CB needs wxWidgets 2.8.12 as the lowest version of wxWidgets that works.
But, I am NOT sure of that.

Hi

I have downloaded 2.8.12 and is happy to inform that this compiled without any hassle.
Thanks for pointing this out. Yes, the tutorial seems to need some update. When downloading the CB source, it someway down on the page states that it needs 2.8.12 ... My fault that I did not check this and just followed the tutorial. (http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/25 (http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/25))

Looking at the wiki again, at the bottom, the last update is more than a year ago (This page was last modified on 23 February 2015, at 03:03.) Somebody worked late. Maybe there are other pits in the tutorial.....? For wxGTK the rest of the tutorial is ok except that for ubuntu one uses sudo in certain places and not su.

EDIT:
Succeeded in compiling and installing CB as-well. I have attached a file where I wrote down the steps that I had to do to succeed.

EDIT2: I reloaded the attachment as there was one error. In ld.so.conf I had written "include /opt/wx/2.8/lib". This is wrong. It should be the path only on a new line without the include tag. My fault.
