Do you have the development packages installed? What distro are you using?

There will be something before that too. Could you post the previous 6-7 lines, please?

dont worry i got that sorted reinstalled and chooses gcc

using debian

once ive done ./configure wot would i do after that?

Most likely 'make' then 'make install'

Do #cat README or cat INSTALL
Usually, there are text documents to that effect that will describe the install procedure.

thanks from your help

open dc++ hub is now working

for every 1 that doesnt have a clue (like me) this is how to do it

opendchub-0.7.12.tar.gz needs to be on a floppy (you wont see the gz in windows)

cd /
mkdir opendchub
mount floppy
cd floppy
mv opendchub-0.7.12.tar.gz /opendchub
cd /opendchub
tar xzvf opendchub-0.7.12.tar.gz
cd /opendchub/opendchub-0.7.12
./configure --disable-perl --prefix-/opendchub
make
make install
cd /opendchub/bin
opendchub

if any1 has used open dc++ hub plz let me know wot to do thx
