Building latest version of Monero is getting a bit tuff and many errors occur on the go. This article explains to Build Monero in Ubuntu. Please follow each step since missing a package may lead to an error.
This article assumes that you are using ubuntu 16.04 , well most of the step will even work for ubuntu 14 , but you will have to compile certain packages to Build Monero in Ubuntu.
If its a fresh installation of Ubuntu please execute following commands
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential
Here you should build cmake from source simple reason is version if you install the camke via command “sudo apt-get install cmake” version 3.5 will be installed which throws error while compiling monero. Best way would be to install cmake version atleast 3.10.1 , below commands will help you with installation of cmake version 3.10.1 .
wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v3.10/cmake-3.10.1.tar.gz
tar -xvzf cmake-3.10.1.tar.gz
cd cmake-3.10.1/
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo update-alternatives –install /usr/bin/cmake cmake /usr/local/bin/cmake 1 –force

This is most important and it has to be done in right way. I got stuck for 2 days because of this. You should clone the repository recursively , other wise all the files won’t be getting downloaded you will face many issues again and again , mostly like undefined reference to `explicit_bzero’ , undefined reference to `memset_s’ or undefined reference to `pthread_create’.
Best way to avoid any such error is to clone the repository recursively using this command.
git clone –recursive https://github.com/monero-project/monero.git
Now the final make command , go to directory of monero and fire the make command , it will stall building , its gonna take some time so just be patience. Use the following commands
cd monero
make
