I’m using fltk2 for the development of DriverStudy. I had some difficulties compiling fltk2 on my Ubuntu, because of missing required libraries. So here are the packages you’ ll have to install to successfully compile fltk2.

sudo apt-get install xorg-dev libjpeg62-dev libpng12-dev

Instead of libjpeg62-dev you can install version 8 of the JPEG Library (libjpeg8-dev) if available on your system.

Also if you need OpenGL support on your fltk2 you’ll have to install GLUT libraries too.

sudo apt-get install libglut3-dev

The rest of the story goes like that:

./configure
make

After build completes take a look at test/demo for some demos.
