[mythtv-users] mythvodka compile problem

I downloaded the Boxee source a few days ago and found that I too was
missing a configure file.  I found that I had to use autoconf on the
configure.in (I think that's what the file name was) file.  After running
autoconf it then provided a configure file.  However, after running make I
ran into other problems.  I'm running ubuntu so I just resorted back to
installing from the repos.
