You are making as root - make should be done as the user. The steps are:
As user -
./configure [- with switches as appropriate]
make

As root -
make install

I would suggest that you try it again with the steps above and then post any errors.

There should be a file in the directory called "INSTALL.TXT" or similar. What does that say about how to install the software?

The relevant point in the stderr output is
'make[3]: `.os.Linux' is up to date.'
This means that make isn't processing that given directory because the intended build is there already, and none of the input files have changed (based on their timestamps).

Otherwise the feedback only states that directories are entered and left while make does it's job. These are not error messages. Your latest posting also shows that the aircrack files have been installed into /usr/local/... locations.

To generate a new build, you have to run 'make distclean' or something like that, if it's supported by the Makefile.

./configure is only responsible for creating a new Makefile. You already are beyond that stage.

You should also check out if /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin are in your $PATH, otherwise the installed applications will not launch without full pathnames.
