Hello everyone, this is my first time to this forum, first time using knoppix and first time with linux so please understand if my question sounds stupid....

I have a partion on my hard drive for knoppix already (/mnt/hda5/). Knoppix works fine and I have downloaded some packages that I require and these are sitting on my new partition.

I am trying to install:

glib-2.6.1
atk-1.9.0
gtk+-2.6.1
pango-1.8.0

However... starting with glib... seems others require glib first...

I ./configure and all seems fine, i then make and all looks fine though when i try to make install i am returned errors:

knoppix@ttyp1[glib-2.6.1]$ make install
make install-recursive

make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1

What is the problem here and how do I fix it?

Thank you
