Re: Compiling

 

You need autotools installed, if you want to compile from the repo.

The configure script was autogenerated, and it's evil to keep
autogenerated stuffs in the repository, since it wreaks havoc if you
forget to re-generate before a commits. Once you've install autotools,
try autoreconf -vifs;./configure;make
