[GNC] Building 5.1 on Ubuntu 22.04

[Vincent Dawans]

Something is definitely off with your package manager. I am on ubuntu 22.04
as well and I have gwenhywfar-tools version 5.9.0-1
It's also the version reported on
https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/22.04/ubuntu-universe-amd64/gwenhywfar-tools_5.9.0-1_amd64.deb.html

Version 5.1.3 is the one reported for 20.04. So are you sure you are on
22.04? If so then somehow your package manager is still pointing to 20.04
repositories.
https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/20.04/ubuntu-universe-amd64/gwenhywfar-tools_5.1.3-1build1_amd64.deb.html

I am able to build with no problem. I think the only changes were in
installing a couple of packages shown on the wiki page where the old name
has changed, but that was obvious as it failed when installing.
