[pacman-dev] Unable to compile pacman in ubuntu-11.10

[Talespin Kit]

Hi,

I have tried to do the Offline Installation as described in 
the ArchLinux wiki, but it did not worked out as i have mentioned in the thread http://stackoverflow.com/posts/comments/12588344. Hence i have planned to compile the pacman in a machine which has 
internet connection and then download the packages using the compiled 
pacman binary and then transfer it to offline ArchLinux Machine.
While i tried to compile the pacman in Ubuntu-11.10 machine i got the following errors
$ make # after ./autogen.sh && ./configure

I have cloned the source from git://projects.archlinux.org/pacman.git and tried compiling with the commit 
e6f72c61a098b52ea29e54b8eb4739a2ff81e6b0 and its parents(until commit 
ae25167bcd592186749b79ea31b10fb78ed9fb2d) with no success.
Any ideas.
