I just downloaded the latest CVS of pd, but there isn't even an autogen.sh or configure script to run and get the build going.
Did you check /path/to/pure-data/pd/ for either INSTALL.txt or README.txt? In the INSTALL.txt it says:
Change to "src" subdirectory.
type "./configure", possibly adding flags as follows:
the problem is, that in the CVS there is no "configure" file in ./src (and it is also missing in recent source tarballs)
exactly.
you have to generate it first, by running "autoconf" (obviously you need to have autoconf installed on your system)
there used to be an autogen.sh script that would do all the autoconf stuff for you. I played with it for about a half hour, using a couple of different versions of autotools and got nowhere.
Any reason why this "autogen.sh" is not included?
