I’ve tried to build over the past couple weeks several times, thinking that there was just a temporary glitch in the trunk, but it seems to fail (and fail differently), each time I try. I was able to build using cmake, so it seems like maybe the configure/make infrastructure is falling out of date. Since that’s the recommended method on the getting started page, I thought I’d notify the list. Also, I’m much more comfortable with configure than cmake, so it would be nice if that worked.
Thanks!
