Hi Bob,
For example, build_nmh is failing during the "configuring" step
because one of the checks, which builds a small program that includes
"gdbm-ndbm.h", fails because that include file is no longer provided
with the libgdbm-dev package (only "gdbm.h" is).
https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=gdbm-ndbm.h&mode=exactfilename&suite=bionic&arch=any
says gdbm-ndbm.h is from package libgdbm-compat-dev on 18.04.
nmh's `MACHINES' may need updating.
Have you considered re-building the existing Ubuntu package that you're
using, after applying Ken's one-line patch? apt-get(1) has a `source'
subcommand, and there's debuild(1) to do the building.
