Unable to compile from source #106

Closed uberhacker closed 3 years ago

This seems to be consistent with all releases including HEAD.

$ ./autogen.sh 
configure.ac:149: installing 'config/compile'
configure.ac:66: installing 'config/config.guess'
configure.ac:66: installing 'config/config.sub'
configure.ac:136: installing 'config/install-sh'

drivers/alsa/Makefile.am: installing 'config/depcomp'
automake --add-missing --foreign failed, exiting...

This results in no configure script. What is the recommended way to compile from source?

When cloning from git, make sure to use --recursive option or init submodules after cloning.

@falkTX: Thank you for the quick reply. Yes, I noticed the instructions were located at https://jackaudio.org/downloads/. Would it make sense to include a How to build from source section in the README.md of this project?

pull requests welcome :)

but working with git submodule is something that should be standard by this point tbh...
