Sarah, Since you're building from source, did you read INSTALL? Did you create a PACKAGES file by copying PACKAGES.default and editing it to remove things you don't need? If the answer to either of these things is no, especially the second item, remediate, then try this:
1. Never a good idea to build things as a non-privileged (not root) user. su to root and try ./configure again. 2. Before running ./configure, execute the typescript command. This will pipe the output of whatever happens while configure is running into a file called typescript which you can then read and download to post here. After configure finishes, type exit<cr> to stop logging. Of course, if your session is terminated, so is the log, but at least you'll have something to look at after you log in again.
