compilation problems

[matrix003]

Hi guys,
I`m new to ubuntu, and I have problem with compilation of source codes...
I wanted to compile kontrollerlab source code, but I can`t because an error is detected.

my problem is like this:

njazi@njazi-System-Name:~/Desktop/prog$ cd/home/njazi/Desktop/prog/

First of all when posting code output please enclose it in CODE tags (the # button) for readability.

And regarding your problem, have you checked config.log for details? Otherwise it's hard to tell why the compilation failed.

However rather than compiling yourself it might be easier to install a precompiled binary, and if you go to the download section (http://www.cadmaniac.org/projectMain.php?projectName=kontrollerlab&section=download) of the homepage for KontrollerLab, you'll find DEB packages for Ubuntu.
And if you really want the v0.8.0-alpha version you can use the Debian (Sid) package.

Have you installed build-essential?
