cannot configure gnumeric 1.12.38

[Anton Kratz <anton kratz gmail com>]

Hi, I am trying to build gnumeric 1.12.38 like this in a completely fresh Ubuntu 16.04 LTS install:

wget http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gnumeric/1.12/gnumeric-1.12.38.tar.xz
sudo apt-get -y install libgtk-3-dev zlibc zlib1g zlib1g-dev intltool libgoffice-0.10 itstool byacc
tar xvf gnumeric-1.12.38.tar.xz
cd gnumeric-1.12.38
./configure 2> ~/stderr > ~/stdout

This approach was working for me without any problems in the past with gnumeric versions 1.12.34 and 1.12.35.

However with 1.12.38 I cannot even pass the configure step. I attached the stdout and stderr files of configure.

Does anyone know what I need to do to make gnumeric 1.12.38 on my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS system?

Anton
