From the different documentation I was reading that after going to the root directory I should execute /.configure; but there is no configure file in the root source directory, just configure.in

In the development source tree, we have files which need to be processed by the GNU autotools (autoconf, automake, aclocal), whereas a source tarball is created from the result of these tools. The manual should cover that, but I don't have a specific URL handy. The development tree contains a file BUILD/autorun.sh which runs these tools.
