 could it be that you don't have the necessary development stuff 
 installed ?

 depending on the distro these are packages with -devel (fedora, 
 opensuse .rpm) or -dev (debian, ubuntu .deb). The names might not be 
 quite exactly the same but look forward to install all of these and 
 their respective dependencies (assuming the debian/ubuntu numenclature):

 mandatory:
     libqt4-dev
     libasound2-dev
     libjack-dev
     libsndfile-dev

 optional:
     libvorbis-dev
     libmad0-dev
     ladspa-sdk
     libsamplerate-dev
     dssi-dev
     liblo-dev
     librubberband-dev
     libslv2-dev
     lv2core
