I have spent about 10 days googleing but have found no result. found someone had similiar situation but he could fix his problem by unsetting the LD_Library_path. but my problem did not go away with that solution.

here is the thing:

I am trying to install it in the lubuntu virtual image that has been provided by espressif.

Did you do as the error message suggest?
You can try "make clean", or simply remove and re-clone the entire repository.

If would be interesting to know if that solves the problem.

I have tried make clean a couple of times. I also tried removing my virtualbox image completely and re-do everything from beginning a couple of times But I still getting that message.
I'm guessing that this error has something to do with dependencies... but I don't know how to check the dependecies required for this part of the sdk that throws error.

It would be really helpful if makers of esp-open-sdk could provide an image of linux with all the sdk pre-installed (same as lubuntu image provided by espressif).
or if if anyone can share his image would be very nice.
