interesting attitude.

1. that is not an error message
2. did you preserve the directory tree when you were unzipping?

if you check the makefile, you'll see:

#     Allegro makefile, by Shawn Hargreaves     #
#                                               #
#     This will only work if you preserved      #
#     the directory tree when installing        #
#     Allegro (ie. if you used infozip, or      #
#     the -d flag to pkunzip).                  #

if that is not what causes your problem, you need to supply more
information.
