Yes, I could have read the file README.git after getting the code from git - perhaps it is obvious that this is the file to read, well it was not obvious to me.

To generate the configure script (usually something done just before release), I think you run autoreconf -i You may need to install the autoconf and autopoint packages for that to succeed. Then, after running configure, do make update make You may need to install the package texinfo for that to succeed. _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list Help-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
