New to Linux - Having trouble installing a library!, errors encountered when installing libnl Options

[Jooshm]

Hey all! I just made the switch to xubuntu on my laptop, and so far I'm really liking it =]

I'm trying to get aircrack-ng working, but it requires that I have a library called "libnl" installed. I've downloaded the tarball, unpacked it, and tried to run a "make" command in the directory in terminal, but I always come up with an error:

CODE

In file included from addr.c:28:
../include/netlink-local.h: In function ‘__str2type’:
../include/netlink-local.h:218: error: ‘ULONG_MAX’ undeclared (first use in this function)
../include/netlink-local.h:218: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
../include/netlink-local.h:218: error: for each function it appears in.)
../include/netlink-local.h: In function ‘__list_str2type’:

make[2]: *** [addr.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

Seeing as I'm a newbie, I'm completely stuck. Could someone help me out?

Thanks,
Josh
