The following commands can be pasted to the console on Ubuntu 20 and related (Mint etc.):

sudo apt-get install automake bison libwxbase3.0-0v5 libwxbase3.0-dev libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0 libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-dev wx3.0-headers wx3.0-i18n libfontconfig1-dev
./autogen.sh
./configure && make

Arch Linux can build from AUR.
