If you just git clone, ./autogen.sh, make, then the first time you get this error: Making all in po make[2]: Entering directory `/home/rjones/d/libguestfs/po' make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/config.status', needed by `Makefile'.

Any ideas why?Thanks! It's because bootstrap's use of po/Makevars.template must happen only after autopoint, which creates that file. I'm writing the fix now.
