download libplist-master.zip ，then ./autogen.sh : configure: error : PACKAGE_VERSION is not defined. Make sure to cnfigure a source tree out from git or that .tarball-version is present

It's really easy, just use git clone instead of downloading the .zip. The reason for this is to prevent building a libplist/plistutil version without the git commit version. The commit version string helps to pinpoint the exact commit it was built from if there is a bug or any other issue.
