When I run the make -j4 command, this is the full output I get, even after doing a git pull with the latest update you pushed.

This probably means you don't have the libsecp256k1 library and its header files installed. Are you on debian/ubuntu? If so, make sure the libsecp256k1-dev package is installed. Otherwise, your platform may have a differently named package. Alternatively you'll have to install from source here: https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1

On Fedora, I had to install by source. I don't think the distro-provided lib provides schnorr signatures.

Procedure is basically;

• follow install instructions for secp256k1
• create & add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf/local.conf
• run "sudo ldconfig"

What is a libsec256k1?

[bortloff]

If you're on Arch, you'll need to get the libsecp256k1-git package from the AUR before it'll compile.
