Thanks so much for your time
 
I'm sorry but I'm new to Linux.
I liked having the progress bar for copying.
Can you give me instructions on how to install it?
Thank you very much
 
It looks like you are missing a tool for compiling the code. The guide mentions as the very first step sudo apt install gcc g++ make build-essential

Please make sure these are installed first.
