Hello Dick!
After you change the makefiles, I get the multiple errors
buzzer@homepc ~/Projects/Programming/kicad-svn $ make -f makefile.gtk
make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/buzzer/Projects/Programming/kicad-svn/common'
g++ -Wall -g `wx-config --debug --cxxflags` -fno-strict-aliasing -I./

confirm.o confirm.cpp
Warning: No config found to match: /usr/bin/wx-config --debug --cxxflags
in /usr/lib/wx/config
If you require this configuration, please install the desired
library build. If this is part of an automated configuration
test and no other errors occur, you may safely ignore it.
You may use wx-config --list to see all configs available in
the default prefix.
