The autotools based build system for gnucash-docs has been deprecated in  
favor of the cmake based build system.

In gnucash-docs 4.8, the bits to use autotools have been fully removed.

The new way of building is summarized as follows:

- create a build directory (eg 'build') next to your source directory
- cd build
- cmake ../<source-dir>
- make

If you used to set an installation prefix while running configure you may want 
do to the equivalent for your cmake run.
The syntax is "-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<path-to-install>"
