Not a Mint user here, but in order to know why "make" is failing we'd need more information. Specifically:

* which program are you trying to compile.
* which steps are you following to do it.

Most times "make" fails it is because you are missing some dependency that was not tested by the ./configure script, there are
version missmatches, or the program you are trying to compile is just bogus.
