installing parallels tools ubuntu 20.04

There is a post on the web that details the workaround for installing tools in linux. It is found here:
https://gist.github.com/mag911/1a5583a766467d6023584d738cee0d98
I have used such post before for 18.04 and works fine, but though I followed the instructions over and over, tools fails to install. Posting the verbose info on attempt hoping someone will have solved the problem. Several comments say that it worked great for them.

Same problem here. make[3]: *** No rule to make target 'arch/x86/tools/relocs_32.c', needed by 'arch/x86/tools/relocs_32.o'. Stop.

 

I presume Parallels support never looks at these messages. For sure they don't care to fix how guest tools installs in Linux OS's.


I tried again to install using the work around that was supposed to work on 20.04 flavor of ubuntu and got the following errors:

---SOLVED---
It works while using the Guest tools from Parallels 15. I did not want to upgrade to from 14 to 15, not that useful to me. So I downloaded the free trial, used the parallels tools.iso to install Guest tools and then went back to 14.
