Beware that in order to compile a program, you need to have the gcc compiler installed, as well as the application make, and their dependencies. Also, AMSN may have its own dependencies, read the INSTALL file to find out more. If you want to install these packages you can use the software management tool of your distro. You may even find AMSN in the repositories, so you don't have to compile it...
Anyway, once you met all these requirements you can compile AMSN by doing the following.
First, in a console change to the directory where you untar the sources files.
Then, you need to type the following commands in a console INSIDE the directory where you untar the source files:
Quote:
./configure
make
make install

Note that you have to type the last command as root.
