In trying to understand a build failure of the latest RocksDB pack (commit 9a88bb9) will be creating dedicated machine based on Ubuntu on WSL 2 on Windows following the information noted at
SWI-Prolog – Installation on Linux, *BSD (Unix)
Prerequisites for Debian based systems (Ubuntu, Mint, …)
as the info there may be dated are there any additional/new advise/suggestions …?
I’m not aware of serious mistakes in the build instructions. On Debian derived systems a simple copy/paste of the dependencies does the job for me. Occasionally some tweaking is needed, but not for recent Ubuntu versions AFAIK.
The RocksDB issue seems an issue between the C++ compiler and the RocksDB source. Haven’t seen that here. I don’t know why as my dev machine runs Ubuntu 22.04. Probably the safest option is to update the rocksdb submodule to the latest (stable) rocksdb version.
Thanks. 
That is my current course of action. Just wanted to remove any possible variables such as toolchain differences so just going all in and creating a new virtual machine as I don’t do SWI-Prolog builds ever, normally just install from the latest Windows build.
