Try this; I just tried it here on a minimal installation and it worked:
apt install git build-essential libgtk-3-dev gettext autopoint autoconf libtool gnome-icon-theme desktop-file-utils
git clone https://github.com/KJ7LNW/xnec2c.git
cd xnec2c
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
Then test it:
./src/xnec2c examples/airplane.nec
and install it system-wide
make install
and optionally install desktop components and file associations
make desktop-install
Then the install script failed at ATLAS. With no other help immediately available, I gave up.
I did not see any ATLAS errors when I did a test with make install. If you still get the atlas error, then please copy and paste the output that you see when you do the installation process so that I can investigate.
Hello KJ7LNW --
We can put closed to the Github ticket. I altered the script and subsequent commands to include sudo, as is my practice. It all worked without a hitch.
Many thanks,

I'd recommend updating the recommended script at xnec2c.org. The one provided to me above worked perfectly. Thanks

You're welcome. We updated documentation for Ubuntu on the website accordingly.
I copied the install script for Xnec2c from the user manual I found at xnec2c.org. When I ran it, the first hiccough was at gettext. From there, lots of “no such file” errors.
So I installed the gnome libraries successfully (“sudo apt-get install build-essential gnome-devel libgtk-3-dev gettext autopoint”) and tried the original install script again.
Then I was told I need GNU Autoconf 2.52. I installed that.
Then the install script failed at ATLAS. With no other help immediately available, I gave up.
I'd like to build antennae. I need some help on this UNIX stuff. Is there a way to install the app without building it ground up? 73
