    Problems with 'MAKE' !

    Well after some missing dependencies I managed to use ./configure after downloading about 11MB's of dependencies via apt-get in Ubuntu. So I ran ./configure and it all went well and I have my makefile. However when I try make, it tells me the following:

    Code:
    root@deb:/home/uholtz/Sourced apps/bluefish-1.0.7# make
    bash: make: command not found
    As you can see, I'm trying to install bluefish. Any help ?

    you have to install package 'build-essential'. its not pre-installed and available in Installation CD. you can download from internet too.
    Add CDROM in Synaptic Repositories, serach 'build-essential' and install.

    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Ah thanks! I'm so relieved it worked without any problems and now I have the latest version of bluefish installed Thanks very much. Now maybe I can go and try to install Limewire since it only comes in .RPM and in bin/source (not sure whether it's binary or source)
