[glob2-devel] compiling the cvs version

[Pope Retarded]

Ok, I might be asking a lot of simple questions, but since the wiki is down, 
I can't find the answers myself.

I've never installed a program from source, so I have no previous 
experience, but I thought that if I followed the instructions in README.cvs 
it would work. Well, as you've already figured out, it didn't.

I installed these dependencies with Synaptic:
- automake
- autoconf
- libsdl1.2
- libsdl-net1.2
- libsdl-image1.2
- libsdl-ttf2.0
- libspeex
- libvorbis

Then I ran the following commands:
- ./bootstrap (creates ./configure)
- ./configure (configure the sources)
- ./syncdata (get the gfx and sounds)
- ./syncmaps (get the maps)
- make (compile)

Now, I don't now where it went wrong, so I'll give you all my output (some 
of it is in Swedish):

make: *** Inga mål angavs och ingen makefil hittades.  Stannar.

The last row in English would be:
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

Remember, I've never done this before (I'm a spoiled Ubuntu user that 
doesn't have to compile anything), so don't laugh at me if it's a stupid 
mistake. :)
