What source rpm? Which package? From where? Name, URL needed.

So your system is a RedHat or Fedora? Which version?

Which Makefile.in? You changed the Makefile.in, not the Makefile,
right?

Yes, it needs more explanation. What are the names of the files you
added? How _exactly_ did you change the Makefile.in? Show like this:
copy the original file to Makefile.in.orig and paste
diff -u Makefile.in.orig Makefile.in
Also show how it fails. Copy and paste, do not only use prose to
explain technical issues.
Please read http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html
carefully. It is available in several translations, too. I'm sorry
but if you don't follow those guidelines I'll be unable to help you.
Cheers,
