There is your problem right there. you cannot use sudo to make install you
have to use the 'su' command

mbse{at}MBSE-PC:/tmp/mbsebbs-1.0.4$ su

mbse{at}MBSE-PC:/tmp/mbsebbs-1.0.4$ make install
mbse{at}MBSE-PC:/tmp/mbsebbs-1.0.4$ exit

Make sure you do not clear the shell (do not use su -) or it will also lose
the variables where to put stuff when getting ready to install
