Greetings, It's the right thead. Yes I did change my source directory and used the .25 version. Shep

Thank You! Success.It took several more tries with different combomations to find one that worked. For the benefit of others perhaps, ./configure , make clean, make, checkinstall was the combonation that worked. I find that I have to make a few mistakes before I learn somthing. Now it's on to learning "the stack". Again, thank you for your patiences Dave. 73 Shep

Hi Dave, Here are my results. configure: WARNING: Libtool does not cope well with whitespace in pwd checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes...

I had trouble with ./configure. I ended up installing libncurses5-dev and libncursesw5-dev and it worked after that. Then make install fails. Shep

Correction on the Linpac version the one I tried was .024. Shep

To start thank you for your help, I truly appreciate it. If it isn't obvious, this is the first time I have tried to compile from source code. OS is MX 16.1 386 libax25 is version 0.0.12rc2+cvs20120204-3. It was installed with the OS Linpac 2.0 from the link on this site. 73 Shep
