error installing 7.4a

Firstly, on a Debian distro,

sudo apt-get build-dep vim-gtk

would have avoided your first problem.

Secondly, I see "linked fine" in the make output; that's a success message, there should be a vim executable in the src directory.

Have you set configure options to get the features you want? Like a GUI, or script language (f. ex. perl, python, ruby, lua...) support? I use Tony Mechelynk's method, see:
