What do I need to do to get my screensaver running/installed?
I’ve downloaded electricsheep_2.1.orig.tar.gz and xscreensaver-5.14.tar.gz because that’s what it said electricsheep needed… but when I unpacked xscreensaver in emelfm and opened INSTALL, it told me to either put in
./configure
or
sh ./configure
So when I did that, it gave me
current directory: /tmp/.emelfm-unpack/xscreensaver-5.14both times.
command line was: ./configure
checking build system type… i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld
checking host system type… i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld
checking for gcc… no
checking for cc… no
checking for cl.exe… no
configure: error: in/tmp/.emelfm-unpack/xscreensaver-5.14': configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH Seeconfig.log’ for more details.

The config.log is as follows:[spoiler]This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
It was created by configure, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.63. Invocation command line was
