TV-B-Gone Arduino Port Question

I downloaded the Ken Shirriff port of the TV B Gone -ware for the Arduino. I unzipped the zip file, and tried to upload it onto an UNO with the 1.5.8 version of the IDE for Linux. With my own sketches, my setup works fine, but not with the TV B Gone -ware. The IDE sees all 3 files in the dir with it, but I get errors. Anyone here who succeeded?
