Dear Roberto:
Thanks so much for writing. I had no problem before (in my earlier installation) with "make". None at all.
I tried your fakeroot method. I was able to build "mplayer" but there lots of errors and warnings. So, I am reluctant to actually install it.
May I please ask what the error message "make: nothing to be done for "all" means (in a sentence).
Thank you so much.
Benjamin
Basically, it means that all the target files are already up to date. I.e., if your source file is print.c (with a time stamp of 17:29) and your binary is a.out (with a time stamp of 17:31) then make has nothing to do. Only if the binary file is older than the source (or does not exist) does make (re)build it.
