Error: unrecognized command line option ‘-Wno-invalid-source-encoding’ [-Werror] within building Mesos - c++

Question

My operating system is Ubuntu 18.10. I follow these steps on three nodes:
To install Mesos I did these steps one by one without any errors, except every node has already had Open JDK 8, so I did not install Open JDK 8 again.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y tar wget git
sudo apt-get install -y openjdk8-jdk (I did not do that)
sudo apt-get install -y autoconf libtool
sudo apt-get -y install build-essential python-dev python-six python-
virtualenv libcurl4-nss-dev libsasl2-dev libsasl2-modules maven
libapr1-dev libsvn-dev zlib1g-dev iputils-ping
The problem is begin when I want to build Mesos. I did these steps for that:
cd mesos-1.7.0
./bootstrap
mkdir build
cd build
../configure
make
My IP addresses are 150.20.11.137,150.20.11.134,150.20.11.157. I downloaded Mesos package on all of them and extracted in the same path.
I did <../configure> on every node without any problems, but when I run "make" I got this error on each node:
third_party/cares/cares/ares_init.c: In function ‘ares_dup’:
third_party/cares/cares/ares_init.c:301:17: error:

Problem solved. The problem was because of GCC version. GCC version in Ubuntu 18.10 is 8.2.0. I installed gcc-5 and g++-5 with this instruction:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gcc-5 g++-5
Then to choose GCC version that I want, I have to install "update-alternatives" for gcc. Therefore, I run these commands:
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-5 500 --slave
/usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-5
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-8 800 --slave
/usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-8
After that I chose gcc-5 with this command :
sudo update-alternatives --config gcc
Moreover, I had an error related to OpenSSL; then I installed it via this command:
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
After those modifications, I started to install Mesos and it installed without any errors. I hope this illustration was helpful for others.
