Hello, I am actually not sure where this should go but this seems to be the most likely place. I am trying to compile and run lirc so I can use a remote for my computer, there is just one problem, it will not compile correctly. I have been able to configure it and create the makefiles, but every time I give the command make I get this:
make all-recursive

I am running OpenSuse 11.0 and am trying to compile and install lirc 0.8.3. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you all for your time and energy.
