Thanks Paul, that cleared it up a lot. Also had some warnings about python but I assume for now that it's okay to ignore that. This bit was left when I ran autogen.sh:
Makefile.am: installing './INSTALL' Makefile.am:48: error: Libtool library used but 'LIBTOOL' is undefined Makefile.am:48: The usual way to define 'LIBTOOL' is to add 'LT_INIT' So I thought, lets see if there's a libtool package I can install, And voila! No more errors on autogen. Then I ran configure and saw this: configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.32.0 libzip >= 0.10) were not met: No package 'glib-2.0' found No package 'libzip' found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. I tried installing glib-2.0 which worked (saw loads of packages being installed). Strange thing is, after this when I rerun configure it still comes back with the same error (not finding glib-2.0/libzip). Because I am using 'sudo apt install' I don't think I need to set the environment variable, do I? I feel we're almost there. If someone could help me with this last stretch...

Once you install it, rerun autogen.sh and show the results please. Also check that autotools versions you have are not older than the building process specifies.
