build problems

[Michael Skowronski]

Hello,

i've been unsucessfully trying to build erlang from the sources.  i'm
using erlang_base-47.4.1.src.tar.gz, linux 2.2.1, debian (unstable).
after configuring, i simply type ``make'' and get the following compile
errors

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lerl_interface
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[4]: ***
[/home/mskow/erlang-47.4.1/erts/bin/i686-unknown-linux/erl_call] Error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory
`/home/mskow/erlang-47.4.1/erts/system/erl_interface/src'
make[3]: *** [opt] Error 2
