    Autocrap is a bloated obsolete stuff that is mostly replaced with other tools like cmake or meson. There’s no need to learn it today.

      Hell maybe I do need to learn some shit, because I was under the impression that you cd into the folder after you untar it, then type ./configure make sudo make install, but the last two packages I attempted to install from source like this just did nothing.
