error invoking target "install" of makefile oracle 10g

I am installing 64-bit 10gR2 on a RH (AMD) 64-bit system. My setup passes all of the initial installer requirements but bombs when linking with "error invoking target "install" of makefile oracle 10g."

Any and all help will be appreciated.

The problem may be with gcc compiler and linkers. Check whether the required packages are the latest version

For 10g R2 (64-bit) on RHEL 4 x86_64, the document Oracle Database Installation Guide 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Linux x86-64 lists the following required package versions or higher:

  binutils-2.15.92.0.2-10.EL4
  compat-db-4.1.25-9
  control-center-2.8.0-12
  gcc-3.4.3-9.EL4
  gcc-c++-3.4.3-9.EL4
  glibc-2.3.4-2
  glibc-common-2.3.4-2
  gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-44.1
  libstdc++-3.4.3-9.EL4
  libstdc++-devel-3.4.3-9.EL4
  make-3.80-5
  pdksh-5.2.14-30
  sysstat-5.0.5-1
  xscreensaver-4.18-5.rhel4.2

Many thanks to those who have responded to my request for help.

I have checked the list of required software packages several times but those packages ending in the suffix .EL4 are not present on my machine nor am I at all certain of how to obtain them. I've Googled the EL4s only to find nothing that makes sense to me. Would you please point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

I've spent most of my day messing with this and still get the makefile error.
I have all of the required software packages installed on my machine.
I am appending below the pertinent part of the installer log file in the hope that this might lead somewhere.
