Hi arkady_c!

Linking...
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lwsock32
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Library wsock32 is windows-only, so it is of course not present on your Ubuntu. I believe you are using it in your package's code (since I couldn't find it anywhere in U++), so you will have to rewrite the code to support linux as well (either using some multiplatform library, or using #ifndef PLATFORM_WIN32).

If you tell us what are you using the library for, someone might be able to advise you on how to make it work on both win and linux...

Best regards,
Honza
