Don’t you need to have a script named configure to actually run ./configure? It seems this is missing and the build is failing on Mac OS even though autoconf is installed…

You need a bootstrap script or some means of generating the ./configure script. Perhaps this is trivial if you’re familiar with auto tools, but the README needs updating to describe how this is done.

Not sure if its the right way (h8 autoconf with a passion) - but this seems to work for me
automake --add-missing && autoreconf

(inspired by https://www.sourceware.org/autobook/autobook/autobook_43.html)

Thanks @nhed, I guess I'll leave this open until I submit a PR to modify the README
