Since newer versions of Ubuntu like 20, you will find there is no longer dynagen and that the dynamips provided is faulty and will segfault each time:

If you are installing ta-lib for Python and get this error then you can normally solve it by manually getting the ta-lib source files and compiling.
tar -zxvf ta-lib-0.4.0-src.tar.gz
cd ta-lib;./configure;make;make install

If you get this error, you were probably compiling some sort of binary or package and got this error. It is normally solved by installing the "gettext"package.
On Debian/Ubuntu just apt-get it:
apt-get install gettext
After that you should be able to configure and make (compile) properly.........
How To Compile QEMU Manually (using sensible options)
1.) Download the QEMU source file you want.
wget https://download.qemu.org/qemu-4.2.0.tar.xz
2.) Extract The Source File
tar -Jxvf qemu-4.2.0.tar.xz
3.) Switch to the extracted source
cd qemu-4.2.0
4.) Make sure we have the right libraries and tools to compile QEMU manually
sudo apt install build-e........

glib-2.12 required to compile QEMU
Solution install glib2
*Don't confuse glib2 with glibc, they are different and it may catch some off guard.
yum -y install glib2*
After that KVM should compile and install just fine.........
I thought only a faster CPUand SSDwould help but I already have a Quad-Core CPU and it wasn't being maxed out. The actual tests were performed on an AMD-V enabled 128MB dual core VMWare container though.
There is a flag that can be passed to make in order to start multiple threads, by specifying 4 threads I was able to reduce the whole kernel compilation time from scratch by about 50%! (65minutes vs 31minutes!). *Yes I did do a make clean before each co........

The folder I was trying to archive is about 72GB, but much like rsync at about 17GB it chokes because of the filesize. What's with so many common and essential Linux tools having such limitations? I guess it is likely that the authors never wrote their code with the idea that files would be so large but it's still very annoying. It's important to stay on top of these limitations on production servers because I didn't realize what happened until I checked the file with "........
