Ubuntu軟件中心emacs的版本是23，自己在網上下了最新版24.3，通過編譯安裝到時候遇到來很多依賴問題，下面將這些問題整理了出來：
1.執行./configure命令出現如下錯誤：
configure: error: You seem to be running X, but no X development libraries
were found. You should install the relevant development files for X
and for the toolkit you want, such as Gtk+, Lesstif or Motif. Also make
sure you have development files for image handling, i.e.
tiff, gif, jpeg, png and xpm.
If you are sure you want Emacs compiled without X window support, pass
--without-x
to configure.
根據提示是缺少X windows系統的開發庫。如果不想在圖形界面下使用Emacs，可以使用--without-x選項進行編譯(廢話),那麼只有把GTK+安裝上才能通過configure了。
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
2.在configure中增加編譯選項，./configure --with-x-toolkit=gtk3，這次配置未提示上述錯誤，但又出現下面錯誤：
The following required libraries were not found:
libXpm libjpeg libgif/libungif libtiff
Maybe some development libraries/packages are missing?
If you don't want to link with them give
--with-xpm=no --with-jpeg=no --with-gif=no --with-tiff=no
as options to configure
提示缺少libXpm libjpeg libgif/libungif libtiff
幾個圖像開發庫也要裝上
sudo apt-get install libxpm-dev
sudo apt-get install libjpeg62-dev
sudo apt-get install libgif-dev
sudo apt-get install libtiff4-dev
3.利用apt-get install 將上述缺少的包及其開發包安裝後，繼續./configure，還有錯誤：
configure: error: The required function `tputs' was not found in any library.
These libraries were tried: libncurses, libterminfo, libtermcap, libcurses.
Please try installing whichever of these libraries is most appropriate
for your system, together with its header files.
For example, a libncurses-dev(el) or similar package.
提示缺少必須的函數'tputs'，有可能在libncurses-dev中，那麼嘗試安裝這個包，再configure
4.因為前面編譯過，所以運行make clean && make distclean來清理一下
5.再通過./configure，終端有如下提示：
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating lib/Makefile
config.status: creating lib-src/Makefile
config.status: creating oldXMenu/Makefile
config.status: creating doc/emacs/Makefile
config.status: creating doc/misc/Makefile
config.status: creating doc/lispintro/Makefile
config.status: creating doc/lispref/Makefile
config.status: creating src/Makefile
config.status: creating lwlib/Makefile
config.status: creating lisp/Makefile
config.status: creating leim/Makefile
config.status: creating src/config.h

[ -r "/home/wkd/src/emacs-24.2/src/config.in" ] || ( cd /home/wkd/src/emacs-24.2 && autoheader )
config.status: executing gdbinit commands
6.sudo make，sudo make install 安裝成功
整個編譯過程，主要是仔細查看configure的輸出，看缺乏哪些庫，只要把缺乏的庫安裝上，就能configure成功，這是關鍵。
