ubuntu (8.04) hardy

This is the error's I get after performing command: make depend && make
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXext
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
winegcc: gcc failed
make[2]: *** [winex11.drv.so] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/administrator/wine-1.1.8/dlls/winex11.drv'
make[1]: *** [winex11.drv] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/administrator/wine-1.1.8/dlls'
make: *** [dlls] Error 2

Any ideas???

extra note: Trying to get punkbuster to work with wine, otherwise I would just use the package manager to install

Have you added the packages needed to build Wine?
