    Yeah, it's daunting to look at, and I have no idea why it's failing so miserably.

    The output does not change when using

    $ Sudo su
    $ make
    or
    $ Sudo make

    It looks like you do not have some of the required packages installed - specifically libbz2-dev and libsdl1.2-dev

    You should not need to su to root to compile.

    Jackson, you had it in the bag.
    I had already installed the req. packages, but I guess they were corrupted. I re-downloaded them and it compiled fine.
    Thanks muchly to all who helped!

    Are the materials stored in the EXE file? Or in separate materials database? If separate database, how can I add or edit materials?

    I VERY MUCH hope it IS in a database because I suck at compiling downloaded source code. I get the latest version of Visual C++ Express (MS's free version) and follow the "hello world" tutorial and it's great. But then I download a source code from Source Forge or something and try to compile and I get tons o' errors! VC++E seems to NOT LIKE pre existing source code!

    Check out the wiki section on compiling and coding, and yes, you will need to compile.
