You only need to do ./configure && make. (autogen.sh is for developers working from the Git repository, and requires various extra tools to be in place.) Now that you have run a bit of autogen.sh, you may need to unpack again from a vanilla tarball, to get back to a clean state. Hope that helps. Neil
