i3-gaps needs a whole bunch of X libraries to build from source, and it changes based on latest development.
sudo apt-get install libx11-xcb-dev libxcb-keysyms1-dev libsdl-pango-dev xcb libx11-xcb-dev libxcb-keysyms1-dev libsdl-pango-dev libxcb1-dev libxcb-keysyms1-dev libpango1.0-dev libxcb-util0-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libyajl-dev libstartup-notification0-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libev-dev libxcb-cursor-dev libxcb-xinerama0-dev libxcb-xkb-dev libxkbcommon-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev
See [https://github.com/Airblader/i3/wiki/Compiling-&-Installing here] for the latest dependency list.
#sudo apt install libxcb1-dev libxcb-keysyms1-dev libpango1.0-dev libxcb-util0-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libyajl-dev libstartup-notification0-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libev-dev libxcb-cursor-dev libxcb-xinerama0-dev libxcb-xkb-dev libxkbcommon-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev autoconf
Carry on...
cd development
git clone https://www.github.com/Airblader/i3 i3-gaps
cd i3-gaps
# do this if you want the stable branch, skip it if you want the dev branch (gaps-next)
# MDM right now, gaps-next results in: fatal error: xcb/xcb_xrm.h: No such file or directory
git checkout gaps && git pull
make
sudo make install


Then reboot and continue to use i3 as window manager.
I am keeping the details in my i3-gaps-install.sh script, see that for details.
 
Note: that in turn is called from my setup_new_ubuntu.sh script.

Building on ubuntu or pi

i3-gaps needs a whole bunch of X libraries to build from source, and it changes based on latest development.

I am keeping the details in my i3-gaps-install.sh script, see that for details.
