Re: ./configure
when that says "src directory" it means the directory into which you
extracted the package you downloaded. for example, if you have a file
called programsource.tar.gz in your /home directory, you would do
something like the following..
# cd /home
# tar zxvf programsource.tar.gz <-- this extracts the
source package
# cd programsource <-- new directory
created by tar
#./configure
Hope that helps
