There are a few things here I do not understand:

  • Why are you trying to build it yourself? There is a package proxychains (mind the extra s. Is this not the same as what you want) in the Packman repository.
  • Why are you building this as root? You should never do things as root when you do not need to do them as root. That means that ./configure and make should be run as a normal user. Only the installation must be run as root.
