No configure file in the source code? #77

Closed chjiao closed 7 years ago

chjiao commented 7 years ago

I only see a "configure.ac" file in the source, which always get error when trying to configure. What is the right way to install from source? Thank you.

The right way is to compile from the release tarball, available from the release page. Download the file jellyfish-x.y.z.tar.gz, where x.y.z is the version.

You can start from the git tree instead, but then you need autoconf/automake and yaggo. You first need to run autoreconf -fi to generate the configure script. This is explained in the README.md file.
