A build from a Git repo could be a bit cleaner
Building directly from a git repo is a bit messy - you have to run aclocal and autoreconf with proper flags manually (instead of single autogen.sh, as it's done for other projects) and there is a lot of untracked files after a build. Additionally, the build process could be silent.
Please, see my patch for that.
