Hi Nick - Thanks very much for that! (and apologies for my delay in replying - I've been having a few net problems, but all sorted out now.... :)
No problem.
That sounds good, I'll try that! This was my first go at building using the Git snapshot, so I think I may have done something wrong. I'll just check the process - is it just -
make distclean ./autogen.sh ./configure make su make install make clean ?
I haven't actually built from GIT myself, but it should be the same as SVN. The process is:
on first checkout: ./autogen.sh
then, and also after any updates: make sudo make install
Sometimes when there are changes to the build system, or just trouble building after an update: make distclean ./autogen.sh
So that's something to try, but if you haven't built from version control before (i.e. used autotools), it's possible you just need a more recent version of them, particularly automake.

Ok - thanks very much - very clear instructions there! I'll follow these and all should be well! :) Bye for now - - Andy
