Unable to install in Ubuntu 22.04 with python 3.10

[IgnasiLucas]

The "configure" script complains that python version is lower than 3.5, which is clearly a mistake in the way versions are compared. I edited the configure script to bypass that error, and the configuration proceeded up to the following error:

checking dynamic linker characteristics... (cached) GNU/Linux ld.so
checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate
./configure: line 16872: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
./configure: line 16872: ` '''
configure: error: ./configure failed for deps/jellyfish-2.2.0

I'm hitting the exact same problems, but on RHEL8...

gmarcais/Jellyfish#178 seems to be fixing this exact problem in Jellyfish, but I'm still getting the "syntax error near unexpected token" error even after applying that patch 🤔
