You get a complaint that jni.h is missing. So one strategy would be to look 
for this file in the available packages:

  sudo apt-file search jni.h

One of the packages returned is openjdk-8-jdk-headless (which I happen to have 
installed). I think (others will know for certain) that you need a Java 
Development Kit (jdk) not just a runtime environment (jre).

Cheers,

Johannes
