It's a bug in the rather new versionen program checks.  Thanks for the
report.  In this case, 'no' is pktrace
(http://www.cs.uu.nl/people/hanwen/pktrace).  It's just a warning,
nothing to worry about.

But more seriously, it seems that you haven't got gcc/g++ installed?
The error message is also a bit strange, I must say, but I didn't test
the configure script without a (c++) compiler.  What c++ compiler did
you install, and what version?

Jan.
