I seem to recall trying to install and run on PCLinux last year and had issues
which I think was resolved a fix from Andrew.

Yep, use the lastest code base as I do not get these errors but PCLinux does
its own thing so try and let us know.

However I do show warning regarding issues with code blocks starting with ra.

such as ra.node ra.net and ra.zone these can be ignored.

You MUST ensure that you have installed all dependancies as shown in so look 
in
README.Gentoo and README.Ubuntu for these. but the most obvious are :

lrzsz   for any modem operations and I don't but  still install it.
All of the archivers arj through to zoo and the editor joe.
Not list I also install golded.

The libraries libc6-dev, libz-dev, libbz2-del (your distro may have other
names). dont forget zinetd as I think that one is needed for PCL.
It is installed on my system.

Also for virus detection you might want to install clamav and the database
package.

OF course you need gcc and all of the dev libraries for it and don't forgoet 
if
you run a x64 system that all the above should be the same for max. 
performace.
