Starting ./autoget.sh on an Ubuntu 18.04 machine, I'm getting
./autogen.sh: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
The reason is:

  • autogen.sh uses an array in line 7: CONFIGURE_ARGS=()
  • by default, autogen.sh is interpreted by sh
  • sh seems not to support arrays in this way

The solution for me was to replace !#/bin/sh by !#/bin/bash.
