Issue while setting up Bluez on Ubuntu NUC: tools/mesh-cfgtest.c:132:10:10: error: Initializer element is not constant

Question

I am trying to setup BLE-Mesh Provisioner on my Ubuntu NUC. Since kernel is already build in NUC Ubuntu with version 4.15.0-76 generic. Now I am trying to compile Bluez from source. I have performed following steps on my system:

Compiling dependency needed for bluez
Installing Json-library and Embedded Linux Library
Compiling Bluez While compiling I am getting an error as:

I am following this reference to setup Bluez in system: https://budimir.cc/2022/01/08/compile-bluez-from-source/

Please help me to resolve this problem while setting up bluez on Ubuntu.

I am expecting the exact solution or guide. How to set up Bluetooth-Low-Energy on Ubuntu. Basically when I was trying with Raspberrypi I was not able to install pygattlib and pybluez .. So I switched to Ubuntu and now I am expecting that there would be solution to resolve this issue. Please help me to resolve this issue
