    Follow the INSTALL and README instructions and set paths on the
    ./configure command line...

    Yes, it certainly will.
    You may have to add

    #include <time.h>

    underneath

    #include <sys/time.h>

    to the offending source code before doing a 'make clean', and then a
    'make'

    This problem seems to do with 2.4 kernels. If that's what you are using,
    you'll probably get the 'linpac uses obsolete socket structure' complaints.

    On the subject of 2.4...expect regular SEGFAULTS and system freezes
    with most packet radio apps when using serial and parallel baycom
    drivers.
