[Gllug] Ropey GPS software.

[general_email at technicalbloke.com]

Hi,

I'm trying to install the data cable driver for my GPS logger. Needless 
to say the extremely shonky windows utility crashes every time so 
getting it running on Ubuntu is my only hope of retrieving over 2 months 
of my GPS data from my friends travels round South America! The software 
(link below) can theoretically make an RPM and, correct me if I'm wrong, 
it's possible to convert an RPM to a .DEB file right?

Still, I can't even get that far, I've installed RPM from the Ubuntu 
repos and followed the install instructions to the letter (I think) yet 
the make process dies in a sea of errors - too many to list here so I've 
uploaded them at the following URL...

Anyone got any ideas? Might it have unsatisfied dependencies? If so 
what? I've done a fair bit of coding before but using dynamic languages 
exclusively so this "make" stuff is all new to me!

Regards,

Roger.
