[Vcftools-help] Badly place ()' error

[Srikanth J. <sja...@my...>]

Hello,

I am trying to run the very first command ./configure.ac to install vcf tools but I keep getting a “ Badly placed ()’s.” message and am unable to proceed further.

The instructions say run ./configure but the only file I see in the downloaded directory is configure.ac

Please let me know if I should be doing things differently.

Thanks,
Srikanth Jammulapati
