Please note, you DO NOT need to make in that folder "libroute"

See the Document:

cd ../libroute # only if your system supports 4.4BSD style routing sockets
make           # only if your system supports 4.4BSD style routing sockets

cd ../libxti   # only if your system supports XTI
make           # only if your system supports XTI

Linux is not BSD style routing, just go to ../intro and build examples~!
