    Configure but no make file

    I am using an iPhone 4 that I jailbroke and ported a gnu gcc compiler for and basically turned it into a portable shell but Ubuntu is the most similar platform to my phone. So here is my question if you can help. I downloaded the ettercap-NG-0.7.3.tar.gz package and I was receiving errors on pthreads but I fixed that. Now after I ./configure it there is no make file so I cannot make or make install

    Configure should tell you what errors have occurred. From there you can try to
    fix those errors and run configure again until it produces no errors and creates
    a Makefile.

    What exactly am I looking for rcgreen? I'm not knew to Linux and never had a problem configuring and installing a tar.gz package before. So could you maybe tell me what I should look for in the log file
