Make utility complains about "undefined reference" when I tried to make TPC-E test

Question

The problem is compounded by the fact that I am far from programming.

I need to use the TPC-E test. I downloaded the source codes from their website.

There is a miserable and almost meaningless ReadMe. Here are its contents:

To use the Makefile you must first set the following environment variables 
to match your system and compiler requirements:

CXX: path and name of compiler
    ex: export CXX=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC  (C++ compiler on Solaris)
CCFLAGS: compiler options
    ex: export CCFLAGS="-g -O"  
        -g enable debug
        -O optimize code
LDFLAGS: linker/loader options
    ex: export LDFLAGS="-g"
LIBS: extra libraries to link in
    ex: export LIBS="-lpthread"

According to the instructions there, I created the necessary environment variables (I just removed the -g switch from the CCFLAGS variable). After that, I ran the make utility and got more than five thousand lines of errors. Apparently he lacks some libraries. On this my knowledge ends.

Here are some error messages received:

A search on the internet made me think of installing the libboost-all-dev package, but that didn't help. In the end, I gave up - I’m completely incomprehensible to the terminology and I don’t have time to study C ++ programming.

Operating System - Debian 10

Questions: which libraries need to be installed and is there anyone who used these tests, how to adapt them to PostgreSQL?

I replaced

export CXX=/usr/bin/gcc

with

export CXX=/usr/bin/c++
