Trying To Install Airsnort


I am trying to install airsnort on Ubuntu 8.10 for some testing in the office and get an error when installing...

Code:
root@trex:/home/carlos/Desktop/airsnort-0.2.7e# pwd
/home/carlos/Desktop/airsnort-0.2.7e
root@trex:/home/carlos/Desktop/airsnort-0.2.7e# ./configure 
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... no
checking for mawk... mawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no
checking for style of include used by make... GNU
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

Yup - meant to say 8.04.

I checked config.log and he shows the following:

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by configure, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.59. Invocation command line was

$ ./configure
