If possible try to go to the IRC channel #conkeror at irc.freenode.net
and we can try to help you interactively.

If you can't do that, though...

Just follow the instructions at http://conkeror.org/Installation

Note that you do not need to use the install script.  Instead, just
place the cloned git repository somewhere, e.g. /usr/lib/conkeror if you
want a system-wide install, run make, copy xulrunner-stub from wherever
xulrunner is installed to /usr/lib/conkeror/conkeror, then make a
symbolic link (note: a hard link will not work) from
e.g. /usr/bin/conkeror to /usr/lib/conkeror/conkeror.  Alternatively,
create a shell script at /usr/bin/conkeror that invokes
/usr/lib/conkeror/conkeror.
