Cannot install Icecat

Hi All,

I'm trying to install icecat 7.0.1 on Fedora 16 x64, and I successfully configured and ran make. But when I run "sudo make install" I get

Code:

run-icecat.sh: Cannot execute /home/kaiwens/Downloads/icecat-7.0.1/dist/bin/xpcshell.

make[1]: *** [install] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/kaiwens/Downloads/icecat-7.0.1/browser/installer'
make: *** [install] Error 2

Help would be appreciated!

Does the file exist? Is it executable?

No, the xpcshell does not even exist. Actually, I just realized that the make ran into problems:

Code:

Perhaps the kernel is not compatible? I'm running fc 3.1.
