Installation problems

Hello. I hope this is the right way to post to the list. I'm having
some installation problems with MC, and I'm just trying to send a
message requesting help.
The last error message I received is:
*** No rule to make target `../gnome/achown.c' needed by `mc.pot'. Stop.
But I received one before that also - where there were some undefines in
slint.c. To get around these, I changed
#define SLANG_VERSION 9938
in slang/slang.h.
to 10001.
Other notes:
========
1. But... I can't find out very much about slang - so I have no idea if
I'm doing the right thing or not. I don't know whether the OS I have
even uses Slang. I'm just trying to get MC to build.
In fact the two books I have on Linux don't even mention Slang. Is
there one recommended book or group of books for Linux that cover these
situations?
2. I checked the config.log. There is no mention of any of the
following:
mc.pot
achown.c
slint.c
SLANG
And I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to look for.
3. What do I do about the No rule to make target for achown.c problem?
4. Is there a version of MC already built for Redhat?
----------------------------
Using: RedHat 6.2 on i86 (Pentium 450 Mhz) with X, Gnome installed, --
but I use the system a lot via telnet.
Many thanks.
Regards,
