These are not error messages.  It is because the top-level Makefile
includes all these dependency files, which doesn't exist yet (open it
an you'll see `-include ....').  The dependency files are made _after_
`bin/rmkdepend' and `bin/rootcint_tmp' has been build.  Hence, just do
your configuration, and then `make' (possibly `make install') and it
should be find.  Ignore the messages like above.

Yours,
