net-snmp configure/make are looping upon source-based installation

I am attempting to install net-snmp version 5.4.1 on a debian based system,
namely Ubuntu 7.0 Server (uname -r returns 2.6.20-15-server).  I used wget
to retrieve the source tarball from sourceforge, (I used sudo -s to root
prior to configure/make) and ran ./configure which seemed to result in a
successful configuration (I saw zero errors and the script completed
successfully). So after that I ran make, and when make gets to the
"Configuration Section", I am asked simple questions regarding version,
administrator email address, and location of logs/configuration files/etc.,
and after that the script states that it needs to run
configure.statusbecause something changed, which is all good and well
(even though I already
answered these questions during the run of ./configure).  So it runs
configure.status and then it asks me these questions again, and says it
needs to run configure.status again -- so I'm stuck in an infinite loop for
some reason when I run the make script and I don't understand why or how to
fix the problem. Has anyone experienced a similar problem on Linux?

net-snmp version: 5.4.1
Linux version: 2.6.20-15-server

Thanks,
