$ make configure

I created a whole new Ubuntu OS on VM for testing how to install git.
(Actually, I am going to test user.useconfigonly feature on Linux.)
I failed on make configure, then I did:

$ sudo apt-get install dh-autoreconf

Better to mention autoreconf in book? Is it a dependency? (I am newbie to Ubuntu. 😃 )
