Henk,

I am wondering if there are some dev files I maybe missing because no mater what I do with the ./configure file I  keep on getting errors.  Are there some dev packages that should be installed?  Maybe I may have over looked a few.  I have all the packages that are recommended by others, Ubuntu Wiki, and you but I still have the same results.

Of late compiling has been a miss.
