In the last three days I have several issues when I want to compile a program, The problem is always the same, in this case for example: ------------------------------------------------------ Configuring xine ------------------------------------------------------ [root@Notebook xine-0.4.3]# ./configure loading cache ./config.cache checking for a BSD compatible install...
