After downloading on my OS X the 1.1.37 source code in order to build ir (as git failed to build this time due to errors too) from ibiblio mirror i went to compile it . However when i tired to do ./configure a message returned to me that i didn't have enough privileges for it I was like 0_0 wtf! :p I said give it a go from sourceforge . Download the source from there and voila . Configured and built successfully . Is there something wrong with the package on ibilio ? Just reporting this in order something is wrong with the package there
