Error when trying to build on Ubunt 11.10

I am getting the following error when running make. Configure went smoothly.

All this probably means it doesn't find the wxWidgets headers. How did
you do the configure step? can you tell us a bit more on your way to get
the whole thing?

I ran configure and it complained about missing wxwidgets. I did an
apt-get install on wxwidgets 2.8 and the configure went through (see
below). I then did a make and ran into that error.

--- configure output

pgAdmin configuration is now complete. You can now compile and
install pgAdmin using 'make; make install'

I installed a couple of -dev packages and got a little further. Now I
get this error.

These are part of the PostgreSQL headers. I heard about it before but
couldn't find the thread about it. Search in the archives, you may find
your answer there.
