Problemi con flex su Slack

[enfry]

non riesco a capire il perchè flex sulla mia macchina con la slackware 9.1 non riesce compilarmi niente, non riesco insomma a creare un file per il compilatore c in quanto una volta lanciato il flex mi da un mucchio di errori..
Spero che qulacuno i possa salvare!!
