#50 build: autogen.sh permission

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: recp

Homebrew team wanted me to create an issue about permissions of autogen.sh. FWIW, Build instructions are already placed in README and docs.

autogen.sh file is not set to be executable. It is just a wrapper that calls these commands for you:

• autoheader,
• libtoolize,
• aclocal,
• autoconf
• automake

you may need execute permission to execute it (autogen.sh). You have a few options to execute autogen.sh, two of them:

1. set a execute permission and run it:

   :::bash
   $ chmod +x ./autogen.sh
   $ ./autogen.sh

2. use sh to execute it:

   :::bash
   $ sh ./autogen.sh
