Trying to install vte-ng from source. I did try the usual methods like using make. There is nothing related to installing in the readme file and could not find a configure folder.
So how do I install this?

First you should generate the Makefile from Makefile.am. For this follow the below instructions:
Make sure you have
autoconf,libglib2.0-dev(for AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT macro),gtk-doc-toolsinstalled.sudo apt-get install autoconf libglib2.0-dev gtk-doc-toolsGet inside extracted source folder, then run autoreconf
cd ./vte-ng-0.42.4.a autoreconfIf you got any error run
automake --add-missingFinally, build and install
./configure && make && sudo make install
user.dz

2As you answered the other question but not accepted by the other user & your question here asked before his. Conceder copying full instructions here then accept it. We flag others as duplicate of this one. I think this will be cleaner fix for the 3 questions. – user.dz Jun 09 '16 at 04:37
