@Learner_Learner, You have downloaded K3B Source Code. In order to compile &
install K3B, you need to install C Compiler (gcc, g++), make. Install these packages
first. You can install these packages from the Fedora CD/DVD.

After you have installed these packages. Run the following commands :

$ su -
(Enter root password)

# cd k3b-0.12.17

# ./configure

# make

# make install

Instead of all this command line why don't you just install the rpms gcc or k3b. It may look very geeky to compile from source but its not worth the headache when so many precompiled binaries are available.

why do u want to d/l is yourself and install it
use variouus package manager, u haven't mentioned your distro

my research shows u have fc6
so go to root and enter
Code:
yum -y install k3b

thats it!
hassle free
