It's a bit puzzling that you got this far since the error indicates that
your CUDA SDK is not fully available for this build. Have you used CUDA
before? On this system?
Here are settings that work with a default install from
cudatoolkit_4.2.9_linux_64_ubuntu11.04.run:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/cuda/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda/lib64
What's your reason to use a CUDA-enabled build of John the Ripper? What
hash types do you intend to use it with? Do we even have CUDA code for
those? (It's not like a "CUDA version of John the Ripper". It is CUDA
code for a handful of individual hash types.)
Have you used John the Ripper before? Do you currently have it working
on your target hashes? What performance are you getting, which you're
presumably hoping to improve by using CUDA? Are you already using
OpenMP or another approach to parallelization? What CPUs and GPUs do
you have in that machine?
Is this all just for the sake of it - try out a CUDA-enabled password
cracker against whatever hashes and in whatever way? If so, you're
probably equally interested in OpenCL as well (it is similarly supported
for individual hash types), are you?

Of course. Your build of JtR has not completed.
