Hey Alan!

 AI> I was using the git version on a slackware-current live DVD.

That should be fine although I've never tried git on any of the live releases.

 AI> When I ran ./configure it said I needed gnulib

AHA!  You need to run ./bootstrap first.  That will take care of gnulib which will become part of the source optimized for whatever ./bootstrap finds interesting.

Life is good,
Maurice
