I was trying to follow this tutorial:
https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/process-model
And in the very first step, I wget the file and run the ./configure script.
It complained about missing libevent-

After that I did a

Ends up with this error. I haven't ever build anything from source till now so some pointers in how to go about debugging this kind of problem will be helpful. Looking at another post I see the following info maybe helpful:
➜ memcached-1.4.5 gcc --version
Configured with: --prefix=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.2.1
Apple LLVM version 5.0 (clang-500.2.79) (based on LLVM 3.3svn)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin13.1.0
Thread model: posix
And my os is mac os x 10.9.2
Thanks and regards, Dhruv Kapur.
