build error

On this system with
Ubuntu 18.02 LTS, cmake 3.14,
Cuda compilation tools, release 10.1, V10.1.105
gcc (Ubuntu 7.3.0-27ubuntu1~18.04) 7.3.0
NVIDIA-SMI 418.39 Driver Version: 418.39 CUDA Version: 10.1

I entered this:
git clone https://github.com/soumith/cudnn.torch.git -b R7 && cd cudnn.torch && luarocks make cudnn-scm-1.rockspec

and got this

help??

in my case it worked with cuda 10.01 and cudnn 7.5 and fresh installation of ubuntu 18.04
Thanks
