Regarding autogen.sh:

    1. This "autogen.sh" command succeeds in generating the requisite 
files for compiling:

./autogen.sh --prefix=/home/elle/code/gimp-help/install/ --without-gimp

But the build ("make -j4 install") ends in an error message:

make[2]: Entering directory '/home/elle/code/gimp-help/gimp-help-2'
make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'install-exec-am'.
/bin/mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/usr/share/gimp/2.0/help’: 
Permission denied
make[2]: *** [Makefile:1616: install-data-local] Error 77
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/elle/code/gimp-help/gimp-help-2'
make[1]: *** [Makefile:977: install-am] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/elle/code/gimp-help/gimp-help-2'
make: *** [Makefile:677: install-recursive] Error 1


When the above error is printed to screen, the actual compiled html 
files are already in /home/elle/code/gimp-help/gimp-help-2/html/

So I guess instead of "make -j4 install" it would be OK to just type 
"make -j4", yes? no?


    2. This "autogen.sh" command ends in an error message:

./autogen.sh --prefix=/home/elle/code/gimp-help/install/ --without-gimp 
--ALL_LINGUAS="en"

Looking for latest automake version ... 1.15

I am going to run ./configure with the following arguments:

  --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-build 
--prefix=/home/elle/code/gimp-help/install/ --without-gimp --ALL_LINGUAS=en

Configure failed or did not finish!
