Compiling in Ubuntu 16.04 error: ‘bool’ undeclared (first use in this function)

I get multiple errors like this when i try to run make:
gcc perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts -fPIC -c -o kc_wrap.o kc_wrap.c
In file included from kc_wrap.c:731:0:
kc_wrap.c: In function ‘SWIG_AsCharPtrAndSize’:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.22/CORE/handy.h:111:34: error: ‘bool’ undeclared (first use in this function)
#define cBOOL(cbool) ((cbool) ? (bool)1 : (bool)0)
^

This is a gcc-perl incompatibility issue. You can just install a perl locally (with a lower version than 5.22, such as 5.8 or 5.10 or 5.14), and then use the local perl instead.

Thanks! The problem was solved using perl 5.10.1 and gcc 4.9.4
