Error when building bzflag

[yosef]

Hi. I'm trying to install BZFlag 2.4 on a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.10 (32-bit). Autogen.sh works fine, as does ./configure. g++ is installed. When running the make command, the process crashes when it enters the "src" folder, like so:

What exactly is happening wrong? Thank you.

Did you follow the instructions in the README.Linux file and install the necessary dependencies? And after that, did you run the 'configure' script again so that the build system detected them? Have you tried doing a 'make distclean' and then redoing the build steps?

[yosef]

Merci. Should have RTM.

Same issue with me, lubuntu 32 bit 12.04. I get this output after I type the command "make install"

I installed all the stuff from from the README.linux, and the debian readme. Still wont work. Any ideas? thanks.

What you posted is not the error. It just says "there was an error". Post what was above that part as well. In addition, you spelled "install" wrong.
