made it impossible for me to install this app.

please help what should i do to install this source structured app. :/
i never had installed source app. before
Hi (and welcome),

1. download the ".tar.gz" and install rootsh from repo (via application manager).
2. command:
Code:
tar zxvf the_file_you_want_to_untar
3. cd into the_directory_that_untar_gave
Maybe it is wise to read the README and INSTALL files...
4. command:
Code:
./configure
5. If configure finished without any issue then command:
Code:
make
6.
Code:
sudo gainroot
cd to_the_untared_directory
make install
.

This is the "standard" way.
Disclaimer: I'm not an expert so maybe someone who knows things better should correct me. And - as always - you better know what you are doing...!
Maybe you will need some extra packages or so. Pay attention to the configure messages...
