Problem with Tar.ball
Does AnyOne know How To Install This particlar Tar.ball. "bibledesktop-1.0.7-bin.tar.gz" I have Followed Instructions From Numorous Places & They all Lead To the Same problem , " No Such File Or Directory "
first I type "tar xzvf etc etc" Then I cd the Name etc , Then When I Type "./configure" I get error " No Such File Or Directory " . now This Is one of the things I have been stuck on working out for a very long time. I can have A CD Or DVD from a Linux Magazine Loaded with Tar Ball pkgs & some will load following Tutorial in the Magazine "Linux Format" etc & other Tutorials i found which seem to give the same explanations but yet only some install, Point I am Trying To make is Why dont All Tar balls Install using same sort Of Method.? AnyWay does Anyone Know How To Install A "bin.tar.gz" thanks

Are you sure bibledesktop-1.0.7-bin.tar.gz is not corrupted? Do you see ./configure file in current directory?

After I tar xzvf /home/jason/DOWNLOADS1/bibledesktop-1.0.7-bin.tar.gz I get a "jsword-1.0.7 " file pooping up in my home directory .
How do i see ./configure file in current directory? Not sure what you mean.? I get this same problem with normal Tar.gz & tar.bz files where some install with no probs but some give the error explained above when i get to ./configure . & thats where I am at a Loss as Why does one TarBall install & not another when they all look the same. If tar Balls Have Different Ways of Being Installed because of differences Then Why Dont These People who Give These Tutorials Only Explain one way to install them. Not To worry Last edited by Homealone; 12-17-2007 at 11:47 PM. Reason: I wrote mistake

Yes you need to install development environment. Under ubuntu package called build-essential takes care of everything.
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
