I am trying to install the GIFT dameon but I get the following issue and I do not know what to make of it. Any thoughts?

creating libgiftproto.la
/bin/sed: can't read Documents/Apollon/gift-0.11.6/lib/libgift.la: No such file or directory
libtool: link: `Documents/Apollon/gift-0.11.6/lib/libgift.la' is not a valid lib tool archive

Can you talk us through the steps you took to install this and any errors you received - esp. the last handful of lines from ./configure.

What I did. I downloaded the gift tarball, I decompressed it and that created the directory. From there I did and ./configure and recieved that error

I Googled and found this thread http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...003/10/2/75802 - although it is not an exact match, it seems close enough to be of help.
