Build Instructions?

Hi,

I downloaded the source packages, but am not sure how they are to be
built.  I saw some dependency graph on the web site, but no instructions
on how to build the individial items.  Most don't have an autoconf script,
and make fails, apparently due to invalid paths.  I extracted all of the
.gz files, the only one I built properly was the build system itself.  Is
there some overview of how to make everything co-operate together?

I am planning to possibly try to integrate some features of this software
with the recently released Qube sources if it is feasible.

 thanks,
