[linrad] Re: Unable to compile linrad-2.34 on Ubuntu Feisty

This is no error. Linrad looks for soundcard.h in some directories
specific for OSS. If it is not present Linrad will assume soundcard.h
is provided by ALSA (or legacy sound)

Seems your Ubuntu install is not complete. I do not know what you have
to add, but Linrad does not require automake to work unless you want
to change any of the .in files.

The only error is that the C compiler is not properly installed. 
I do not know the exact reason, maybe the run time libraries are
missing. Have a look at config.log, it might advice what more
packages you need to make GCC work.
