Build method #1: (doesn't work)
git clone https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer.git cd cgminer libtoolize aclocal autoheader automake --add-missing # ignore errors here autoconf ./configure --enable-icarus # FAILS HERE WITH MISSING Makefile.in make
Build method #2:
git clone https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer.git cd cgminer aclocal ./autogen.sh ## export LIBCURL_CFLAGS='-I/usr/include/curl' ## export LIBCURL_LIBS='-L/usr/lib -lcurl' ./configure --enable-icarus make
