hello, I downloaded 0.7.2 from a CMU mirror and extracted to a gnash-0.7.2 directory under my home dir. I'm running Ubuntu 7.04, installed from a 64-bit ISO onto my AMD 64 box. Should I install some development packages before trying to configure/compile/install gnash (& if so, which)?
I'm getting this output from running the ./configure command (using the configure script unmodified from the download):
checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking target system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking for -p flag to install... yes checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... mawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... (cached) yes
checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details.
I looked at config.log but could not make much sense of it. I can post it somewhere online, it seemed too big to include here, but this portion seems like it might be relevant:

Any suggestions greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
