    Configure Error...

    Whenever I try to install a new program using Konsole I come to a dead end with the message: "Configure: error: c++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fail sanity check". I first came across this when trying to configure Xine with "./configure" but it does it with everything that I try to compile or install, soz I'm new to the system and don't know how to refer to the things that I'm doing properly yet, just follow the directions :P.

    Any help would be appreciated,
