you're missing libc6-dev.

if you're going compile project, need header files dependencies of project. emacs needs libc6, , have on system (can't run linux box without it) don't have headers it, in dev package.

start googling "ubuntu /path/to/file" , leads search 1 above, or other forum post can't find it.
