[ndnSIM] Version 2.x compilation problem on Ubuntu 14.04 based Server

[Spyridon (Spyros) Mastorakis]

Hi,

ndnSIM 2.4 should compile on Ubuntu Linux 16.04 (32- and 64-bit platform), since this version is supported by NS-3. Unfortunately, Ubuntu Linux 14.04 is not supported by NS-3 itself anymore.

Thanks,

Unfortunately, it did not succeed in the compilation process. Version 2.4 compilation requires newer version of some dependencies which might not be satisfied with Ubuntu 14.04 and could not even pass through NS-3 wifi module compilation.
