I just tested the compile on my system and I get the exact same error.
This is on my primary desktop, so would expect most build-dependencies to be 
present.

I also noticed the following bug on b.g.o.:

For your current issue, you could try version 239, which does compile on my 
system. I am not going to test installing it as that risks not being able to 
boot my desktop.
