I have a Logitech Pro 4000, and use these drivers.
Have downloaded the 10.0.6a version and successfully compiled.
http://www.saillard.org/linux/pwc/files/pwc-10.0.6a.tar.bz2

I would make a few suggestions;
1) Verify that the kernel source is installed, and dependancies checked.
install the kernel_source rpm, and as root
cd /usr/src/linux
make cloneconfig

2) Verify that the files are intact and correctly extracted.

3) I grabbed the 10.0.6a tarball instead, figured with the a released only a
few days later, it was probably a bugfix release.
