how do i fix this?

[ZerBea]

That is easy to fix. You have to install the missing dependencies (using your packet manager) as described in README.md:

Requirements
--------------
* Linux (recommended Arch Linux, but other distros should work, too (no support for other distributions).
* gcc 10 recommended (deprecated versions are not supported: https://gcc.gnu.org/)
* libopenssl and openssl-dev installed
* librt and librt-dev installed (should be installed by default)
* zlib and zlib-dev installed (for gzip compressed cap/pcap/pcapng files)
* libcurl and curl-dev installed (used by whoismac and wlancap2wpasec)
* libpthread and pthread-dev installed (used by hcxhashcattool)
* pkg-config installed
To install requirements on Kali use the following 'apt-get install pkg-config libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev zlib1g-dev'
If you decide to compile latest git head, make sure that your distribution is updated on latest version.

The names of the packages could be different - that depend on your distribution.

Closed this issue, because it is not related to hcxtools, but you can still ask your questions here.

You can read more here:

#174
here
#140
here
#135
and much more...

It looks like some distributions (e.g. KALI) doesn't install the dependencies by default.
Also make your your distribution is updated/upgraded to the latest version (e.g. KALI, UBUNTU, Debian, ...).
