Ralf,

I am running on Mandriva 2006 IA32 Linux - nothing exotic.

/bin/sh is bash: GNU bash, version 3.00.16(2)-release (i586-mandriva-linux-gnu).
/bin/sed is: GNU sed version 4.1.4.

Please find the tool attached: AppsFromScratch.20061104.20061107.tar.gz.

This what you need to run it:

1) download the file - you can put it any directory, I assume ~;
2) unpackage the file:

cd ~
tar zxvf AppsFromScratch.20061104.20061107.tar.gz

- you should get these files:

AppsFromScratch/20061104/bin/build.pl
AppsFromScratch/20061104/include/perl/general/ArrayHashCodeDumper.pm
AppsFromScratch/20061104/include/perl/general/ArrayHashDumper.pm

AppsFromScratch/20061104/README
AppsFromScratch/20061104/CHANGELOG

3) choose work directory, it can be any, I assume ~/work:

mkdir -p ~/work; cd ~/work

4) run the tool:

~/AppsFromScratch/20061104/bin/build.pl -targets_to_build autogen -make_like 
1>buil.log 2>&1 &
.

When the tool works, it prints to STDERR command lines it's executing, so you 
can repeat
them manually. Here is the 'autogen' proper excerpt from the tool log file:

The README file is pretty detailed, though somewhat out of date;

~/AppsFromScratch/20061104/bin/build.pl -help

works :-).
