Can't get it to work on Ubuntu 18.04

HI everyone,
For some reason I can't get this to work on Ubuntu 18.04 :(. I tried to follow the normal install guide for debian Linux install:
sudo apt-get install build-essential pkg-config libvlccore-dev libvlc-dev
But when I tried to do the:
make sudo make install
It gave me this:
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
So I looked at others having this issue; and I found the following for an older version of VLC:
'Sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo reboot
sudo apt-get install vlc git
git clone https://github.com/nurupo/vlc-pause-click-plugin.git
cd vlc-pause-click-plugin/vlc-2.2.x+
sudo apt-get install build-essential pkg-config libvlccore-dev
make
sudo make install`
I got to: cd vlc-pause-click-plugin/vlc-2.2.x+ before running into an issue - as there is no directory like this now.
Could someone please help me finish this install so I can get click to pause on VLC 3.0.3?
Thanks,
~Mike
You are supposed to run make in the root directory of this repository.
Here are the dumbed down instructions:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential pkg-config libvlccore-dev libvlc-dev git vlc
git clone https://github.com/nurupo/vlc-pause-click-plugin
cd vlc-pause-click-plugin
git checkout 1.0.0
make
sudo make install
You can delete the "vlc-pause-click-plugin" directory after that.
Cool, glad it worked. Feel free to open an issue if you have any trouble getting the plugin to work.
