Makefile:17: /lib/build.mak: no such file or directory
make: ***No rule to make target '/lib/build.mak'. Stop.

No doubt you found that psp-config was not in your path.
Incase anyone else has the same problem, add this directory to your path

/usr/local/pspdev/bin

but hey, i gotta do write this code ALL THE TIME! right before i type "make" to compile my code in the directory where source codes are at....

## PSPDEV PATH SETTINGS
export PSPDEV="/usr/local/pspdev"
export PSPSDK="$PSPDEV/psp/sdk"
export PATH="$PATH:$PSPDEV/bin:$PSPSDK/bin"

im tried of typing all that...is there a shortier way???? is there a way i dont have to write this crap and still be able to compile it???

You only have to type export once for it to remain for the shell session you're in. And you only need to set the PATH, the other two aren't required.

If you put this in your .bash_profile in your Home directory then you never have to type it again.

I've been getting the same error as in the original post, and I have /usr/local/pspdev/bin as a path, but I know what the problem is: looking in that folder (/usr/local/pspdev/bin), there is no psp-config.exe. There is psp-gcc.exe and a bunch of others, but no psp-config.exe.

If someone has any idea why, let me know. Until then, I'm trying to reinstall the toolchain from scratch, because the original installation had a few problems along the way anyway.

edit, problem solved: reinstalling (after I manually installed automake) fixed the problem.
