Cannot recompile Snort after patching it!

[d.deboni () edexter it]

Hi to everyone,

First this is my configuration:
IBM xSeries 440 (4 CPUs)
4GB RAM
Fedora Core 1
Snort 2.1.1


After installing SnortSam 2.23 and patching Snort with the snortsam-patch 
I found on the snort site, I wasn't able to recompile Snort (as the 
snortsam documentation says)

I get this error message when I run "make install" from the Snort 
directory:

make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-data-am'.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/snort-2.1.1/src/parser'

I really cannot figure it out

Please help me!

Thank you!
