Is 'make' trying to make configure.h here?
Yes
Why is permission denied--even as root?
Most likely because the partition where you have /home is mounted with the 'noexec' flag, which disallows any programs from being executed on it. Edit /etc/fstab to remove it, and either remount /home or reboot
Hi Anders, Here is the relevant line: /dev/hda3 /home auto defaults,user 0 0 I don't know how to check if 'defaults' includes the 'noexec' flag or how to remove it if it does.
What does execvp mean?
execute a program, sending it an array of variables, and using $PATH to search for the program.
It just means make is trying to run a program, in this case 'configure'
Thanks Anders, Jerome
