Answer 1

Thanx Chok. I know that. That's why I'm posting this. This app was make for debian so it's something to do with:
install:    jconv fconv mkwavex
    /usr/bin/install -m 755 jconv $(PREFIX)/bin
    /usr/bin/install -m 755 fconv $(PREFIX)/bin
    /usr/bin/install -m 755 mkwavex $(PREFIX)/bin
solved...I removed [/usr/bin/install -m 755] and replaced with [install]
so it looked like this:
install $(PREFIX)/bin
