xf86 wacam is support for wacom tablets - those stylus / surface
combinations that allow you to draw with a pen like object instead of a
mouse.
My hunch is that there should be a configure option to get rid of this
support. Alternatively there might be a wacom development package you
need to acquire.
Nevertheless, the make should have provided some real guidance rather
than the all-too-common `file not found'.
