Thanks for that - good to know, I've just pushed a fix to master for it.

Yup. We ship both a configure and a Makefile for compatibility with 
build systems like JHBuild and Flatpak, and for people's muscle memory, 
but they are just a wrapper around the cmake system.

You can use either as you prefer, but note if using cmake directly the 
build can't be an in-source build at the moment, you have to make an 
external directory like "build" in which to do the compiling. This is 
something the configure script and Makefile takes care of automatically.
