When I tried your command './configure 2>
filename.txt' I got this:
configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH
otherwise here is what I get when I try to install any
tared program.
loading cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... i586-pc-linux-gnuoldld
checking target system type...i586-pc-linux-gnuoldld
checking build system type...i586-pc-linux-gnuoldld
checking for a BSD compatible install...
/user/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... no
checking for working ac local...missing
checking for working autoconfig...missing
checking for working automake...missing

configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH
there it is. Thanks for your help.
