i think i configured it fine, it didnt say i was missing any dependencies (after a long time of searching for them >_<)

anyhow, ive been seeing this same exact error (whatever it would be called in this case) for a while, and i have no idea what it means......is there anyway to get through this (no i cant use git packages cause im using hardy)


thanks in advance

well i was able to spot the problem, one of the folders i was using had a space (program files) so all waht i needed to do was to rename it Program_files and it worked....at least i got thru that problem...


i encountered another error, but for the lack of an audience i wont post in this board....
