Installing Miracle Cast on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS

How to make the Miracast app "Miraclecast" work on an Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS system? I followed the instructions listed below:

1. Go to .

2. Download the entire source code, not just autogen.sh. You can do it by clicking the Clone or download button, and then Download as ZIP or directly at .

3. Unzip the folder to get folder miraclecast-master and run:

   cd miraclecast-master
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install ubuntu-dev-tools autoconf libtool libudev-dev libsystemd-dev glib-2.0 libperl-dev libgtk2.0-dev libreadline-dev
   libtoolize; aclocal; autoconf
   sudo ./autogen.sh

4. Once ./autogen.sh is complete, run:

   sudo ./configure
   sudo make
   sudo make install

and I followed these steps but had an error on:

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-dev-tools autoconf libtool libudev-dev libsystemd-dev glib-2.0 libperl-dev libgtk2.0-dev libreadline-dev
libtoolize; aclocal; autoconf

But got past it by adding a ; at the line break -

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-dev-tools autoconf libtool libudev-dev libsystemd-dev glib-2.0 libperl-dev libgtk2.0-dev libreadline-dev;
libtoolize; aclocal; autoconf

Then finished the steps and... Nothing...

Or maybe I'm missing something???

Don't use ; to separate these: they will turn libraries into commands.

Use the following commands instead:

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-dev-tools autoconf libtool libudev-dev libsystemd-dev glib-2.0 libperl-dev libgtk2.0-dev libreadline-dev
libtoolize
aclocal
autoconf
