building lirc fails

[todd b. <to...@to...>]

Hi all I sure this has been asked before, so feel free to forward me a
link to the solution.

I have a new install of fedora 9. when I try to build lirc I get all
sorts of error messages.  Can some one look at this and tell me how to
fix?  thanks

I run setup, for a serial port then make then make install.

setup works the rest doesn'tYou will have to use the lirc_serial kernel
module.

Now enter 'make' and 'make install' to compile and install the package.
