@ zarda :   Of course it will work, just use the mentioned Ubuntu 12.04 ...14.04 package

http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/x/xgraph/

→ → http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/x/xgraph/xgraph_12.1-17_amd64.deb

And you can easily build xgraph with the most  Linux OS.

But to use with new Ubuntu, a build on Ubuntu 12.04 or 14.04 is suggested.

Example ....

cd xgraph-12.2/

rm depcomp

ln -s /usr/share/automake-1.16/depcomp

./configure && make

@kundfl

as per above command i am getting this:

[root@localhost Desktop]# cd /home/asim/ns-allinone-2.35/xgraph-12.2/

[root@localhost xgraph-12.2]# rm depcomp

rm: remove symbolic link ‘depcomp’?    (In this line I have to remove it first or what to do)

[root@localhost xgraph-12.2]# ln -s /usr/share/automake-1.16/depcomp

ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘./depcomp’: File exists

Not quite clear if there is a question ?  The link cannot be created if you fail the delete.

    If you are asking a question, it can be answered when the OS is specified.

OS name and version, please.

But then again, if you have a newer Ubuntu version, an Xgraph build may not work.

          The safe solution : Install xgraph_12.1-17_amd64.deb with apt or gdebi.
