Okay. To start off, I should mention I'm very noobish on installing from source in Linux. I am currently using Fedora 8 and I've come to realize that YUM seems to suck because it doesn't list recent updates to programs I'd like to use. I downloaded the tarballed source and unpacked the archive. I changed the directory into the created folder and ran './configure'. When I did this, it was revealed that I was missing a Perl module that was required. Knowing this, I went to CPAN and downloaded and unpacked the source for the Perl module that it said was required. I then followed these instructions to install the Perl module
HERE.
When running 'perl Makefile.PL', I found out that I need a Perl module for that one. I downloaded that Perl module and did the same thing. Running 'perl Makefile.PL' was successful. I then proceeded to use 'make' to compile the source. This is when I'm given the following error:
Quote:
[kronicllyill@localhost ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.44]$ sudo make
make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE/config.h', needed by `Makefile'. Stop.

Maybe this is something simple, but I'm not sure what it's wanting me to do here. Can someone please shed some light on this for me?
