    Hello Daniel,
    This means that ./configure didn't manage to create Makefile. Probably you are
    missing some dependencies. Check the output of ./configure and install what's missing.
    You can also try to use the binary for your distribution available from
    R's mirrors.
    Good luck
    Petr
