Struggling to compile amarok 2.9.80 from source on Ubuntu 16.04, get following error:

Code: Select all

[ 43%] Linking CXX executable testtrackorganizer
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgtest
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
tests/CMakeFiles/testtrackorganizer.dir/build.make:236: recipe for target 'tests/testtrackorganizer' failed
make[2]: *** [tests/testtrackorganizer] Error 1
CMakeFiles/Makefile2:1814: recipe for target 'tests/CMakeFiles/testtrackorganizer.dir/all' failed
make[1]: *** [tests/CMakeFiles/testtrackorganizer.dir/all] Error 2
Makefile:138: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2
 

Any pointers to what I'm missing?

Something requires the option -lgtest, check again if you have the testing framework configured correctly. Alternatively (if you do not plan to submit patches or code) you can build with unit tests disabled.
