could not compile dependency :salty, "mix compile" failed

Question

I am compiling my application with mix compile and there an error is occurring for the dependency salty.

I have already added the dependency salty and libsodium. But still error is not resolved.

this is my mix.exs file with all the dependencies.

defp deps do
    [
      {:poison, "~> 3.0", override: true},
      {:syndicate, in_umbrella: true},
      {:xarango, "~> 0.7.0"},
      {:ecto, "~> 3.1"},
      {:phoenix, "~> 1.4.0"},
      {:gettext, "~> 0.11"},
      {:cowboy, "~> 2.6"},
      {:joken, "~> 2.0"},
      {:ecto_sql, "~> 3.0"},
      {:jason, "~> 1.0"},
      {:postgrex, ">= 0.0.0"},
      {:sage, "~> 0.4.0"},
      {:salty, "~> 0.1.3", hex: :libsalty},
      {:libsodium, "~> 0.0.10"}
    ]
  end

it should compile perfectly but it is throwing an error

could not compile dependency :salty, "mix compile" failed. You can recompile this dependency with "mix deps.compile salty", update it with "mix deps.update salty" or clean it with "mix deps.clean salty"
** (Mix) Could not compile with "make" (exit status: 2).
You need to have gcc and make installed. If you are using
Ubuntu or any other Debian-based system, install the packages
"build-essential". Also install "erlang-dev" package if not
included in your Erlang/OTP version. If you're on Fedora, run
"dnf group install 'Development Tools'".

You need to have gcc and make installed. did you follow this error message? — Tano, Jun 19 '19 at 07:57
yeah..its already installed. and also erlang-dev package is installed — SmartieHead, Jun 19 '19 at 08:58
The [README file](https://github.com/ArteMisc/libsalty#requirements) says "Libsalty requires that libsodium 1.0.12 or later is already installed on your system. If you receive compiler warnings or a missing symbol error when trying to use libsalty, it's likely that you're running on a system with an old version of libsodium." Perhaps that's worth checking? — legoscia, Jun 19 '19 at 12:26
but whenever i try to install libsodium by ```apt-get install libsodium-dev ``` it says its already upto date. ```Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done libsodium-dev is already the newest version (1.0.8-5). 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded. ``` — SmartieHead, Jun 19 '19 at 12:59
Package manager default repositories usually do not have the most up to date versions of packages. It sounds like you will need to get a newer version of libsodium from elsewhere. — Justin Wood, Jun 19 '19 at 13:26
@RadhikaPatil Are you using Ubuntu? Looking at https://packages.ubuntu.com/libsodium-dev , it seems like there is a newer libsodium version in Ubuntu 18.04 and later. Any chance you can upgrade Ubuntu? — legoscia, Jun 20 '19 at 09:21
[https://download.libsodium.org/libsodium/releases/] i got newer version of libsodium from here..just installed and it resolved the issue — SmartieHead, Jun 20 '19 at 09:44

As noted in the comments to question, installing libsodium 1.0.12+ addresses the issue.
