I understand but my question was confusing. I mean before you uncompress the 
sources, the directory was clean or there was already some source file which 
could conflict ?

Did you check the file which seems to define same function and variable ? If 
there is actually a conflict, then look for which purpose (which module or 
functionality) both files are. Then try to remove the other module if you don't 
need it.
