BitchX Error


I downloaded the source but after i run the ./configure command and try to run gmake or make i get the follwoing error.........


Code:
/bin/sh: test: /home/Kryptow/downloads/chat: binary operator expected
cd source \
  && gmake 'local_dir=/root' 'INSTALL_IRC=/usr/local/bin/BitchX' 'IRCLIB=/usr/local/lib/bx' 'CC=gcc' 'CFLAGS=-O2 -Wall -g ' 'HELPDIR=/usr/local/lib/bx/help' 'INSTALL_WSERV=/usr/local/lib/bx/wserv' 'IRCPATH=~/.BitchX:~/.BitchX/plugins:.:/usr/local/lib/bx/plugins:/usr/local/lib/bx/script:/usr/local/lib/bx' 'TRANSLATION_PATH=/usr/local/lib/bx/translation' 'LDFLAGS=' 'LIBS=-lcrypt -lm -lncurses -lresolv ' 'LN=ln -s' 'RM=rm -f' 'TCL_SRCS=' 'TCL_OBJS=' 'CD_PLAY=' 'CD_SRCS=' 'CD_OBJS=' 'TCL_LIBS=' 'PLUGINDIR=/usr/local/lib/bx/plugins' '_VERSION_=BitchX' 'VERSION=BitchX-1.0c19' 'INSTALL_DATA=/usr/bin/install -c -m 644' 'INSTALL_SCRIPT=/usr/local/lib/bx/script' 'EXEEXT=' 'SHLIB_CFLAGS=' 'SHLIB_SUFFIX=.so' all
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/home/Kryptow/downloads/chat clients/BitchX/source'
gmake[1]: *** No rule to make target `../include/../.config.h', needed by `alias.o'.  Stop.
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/Kryptow/downloads/chat clients/BitchX/source'gmake: *** [BitchX] Error 2
What am i doing wrong here is there a prefix that needs to be specified? Because I used ./configure without any sort of prefix considering it was suppose ot use the default.


Thank you

Damn didn't think it would have been like this doesn't anyone use BitchX anymore? Or is this error something that is new and unheard of?

This i can't figure out what is wrong with the install everything will go ok for the first 3 steps then once i try and make it it gives me the error above. here are my steps.........


Installing BitchX with source


Download the source file, ircii-pana-xx-xx.tar.gz, and do this:
gzip -d ircii-pana-xx-xx.tar.gz
tar xvf ircii-pana-xx-xx.tar
cd ./BitchX
more INSTALLATION (Specific OS problems, etc...)
./configure
make
make install (only if you are root - to install for system)


Where is the problem?
