Nothing compiles ... ever !!!

I'm really pissed cuz nothing ever compiles on my system ... yeah I suppose it's my fault cuz I follow the install instructions and it still doesn't fucking work !!! This usually doesn't bother me cuz I can find binaries for most things ... but sometimes there are no binaries and I'm stuck with compiling, and it never works.

Specifically, I've been trying to compile noeGNUd ... probably the most difficult thing to compile in this sector of the universe ... and there are more errors than I can count when I try to compile it. Any suggestions. I was thinking of running the Window$ binary through cedega as a last resort :( (there are no Linux binaries available ... except for the oldest version ... unless someone knows more than I do)

WMD:
Do you even have the compiler installed?

piratePenguin:
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-Building-HOWTO.html There's a HOWTO about compiling stuff if you wanna read it.

I'm compiling this thing ATM (don't even know what it is, yet..). It's running alright.

worker201:
If you haven't yet, read this file:
noegnud-0.8.3/variants/nethack-3.4.3/sys/unix/Install.unx

I tried compiling it, seems like somebody has gone out of their way to make this difficult.  Simply running make, as the instructions advise, only produces some possible arguments to append.  make data gives a text warning, and nothing else.  make nh343 runs fine for awhile, and then chokes on SDL includes.  My system keeps its SDL includes in /usr/include/SDL/, which is a pretty normal place for them.  I suppose if you wanted to, you could go directly into the file that faults (in my case, noegnud-0.8.3/variants/nethack-3.4.3/win/noegnud/noegnud_interface.c) and manually change the path in the includes.  But that will just make more problems down the road.

Look around, there are a bunch of configure files that you can edit by hand that will make this process much smoother.  The makefiles you can edit by hand too.  I don't have time to sit here and fix this for you, but if you have any specific questions about a specific error, post them here.

H_TeXMeX_H:
I wish it were a specific error like usual ... but there are a million errors ... I think the author of it is just fucked in the head. Surely he could have included the usual configure file, increasing the chance that the compile will work ... I suppose I should just give up, since it's just isn't worth it. So to all developers out there, try to make shit that has a chance of compiling by noobs such as myself. I'm not the only one who has a hard time with compiling this shit ... I've read many a comment on this.

P.S. Cedega can't handle this shit either ... just a black screen when I run it ...
