Trying to install mira-4.0.2, error while make

Question

[esilan]

I have been trying to install mira version 4.0.2 to my Ubuntu system. I'm using the precompiled version. Today, I've successfully managed to load and configure with ./configure which successfully gives me;

Looks good, we do not expect compilation problems. Type 'make' to make the binaries and then 'make install' to install them.

but when I use make It gives me an error, tail looking like this;

 In file included from exp_flexer.cc:323:0:
/usr/include/FlexLexer.h:156:8: error: candidate is: void EXPFlexLexer::yy_init_buffer(yy_buffer_state*, std::istream&)
   void yy_init_buffer( yy_buffer_state* b, std::istream& s );
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And here is the full error for make: https://pastebin.com/T4ZgZRkD

I should also point out i know a newer version of mira exists, which I managed to work with before, but we would like to use MITObim which does not support mira versions higher than 4.0.2, so this is what im delibaretely trying to work on.

I'm using the precompiled version

If you are using pre-compiled version then there is no need to make or configure or do anything else. Add execute permissions (if needed, chmod a+x mira) and start running.

Agreed. Alternatively use conda.
