confusing install procedure #5

README says :

  1. In the DirectFB directory type:
    ./configure
    make
    make install (as superuser)

But after git clone, there is no "configure".
You have to run "./autogen.sh" which check dependencies and seems to also execute ./configure and finish with a "run make to build directfb".

Is the right procedure :
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
make install (as superuser)
or just
./autogen.sh
make
make install (as superuser)
If the later, how to choose configure options ?

You need to run ./autogen.sh with the required parameters, it will pass them to ./configure. See https://github.com/deniskropp/DirectFB/blob/master/autogen.sh#L110 and below.

Calling ./configure a second time should also work.

Or instead of using autogen.sh, recommended is running "autoreconf -fi", then ./configure etc...
