Glen,<div><br></div><div>What you're looking at is a standard GNU autotools build setup. You build it with ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make. If you haven't done this kind of thing before then you probably don't have the required packages, look at the list of dependencies at [1].</div>
<div><br></div><div>(Presumably you've checked this out of version control: the difference between what's in version control and what's in a release tarball is simply that for the tarball the "autogen.sh" step was already run.)</div>

My C++ is rusty (ore) though and I've never used gnome-autogen.sh. Is there a good tutorial I can have a look at to see how the gnome-autogen.sh and python.m4 macros conspire to get this thing compiled? I've been searching but can't find anything decent and I've learned enough bash for the moment. Any quick descriptions are welcome too. :)<br>
