Q: 

Compiling MIT Scheme on Ubuntu 9.04

When I run ./configure I receive:

configure: running /bin/bash ./configure '--prefix=/usr/local' --cache-file=/dev/null --srcdir=. Unknown machine type: none configure: error: ./configure failed for compiler

This is on a Lenovo laptop with 4GB of memory.
Linux shllaptop 2.6.28-15-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Tue Aug 18 19:25:34 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Any suggestions?

A: 

Starting with the basics -- do you have the build-essential package installed?

I got it to compile with etc/make-liarc.sh. Then I got:scheme: error while loading shared libraries: libmhash.so.2: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64which I resolved by downloading libmhash2_0.9.9-1_i386.deb, the i386 package, from http://packages.ubuntu.com and installing if with --force-architecture.I now works.
