Description Kartikaya Gupta 2012-09-05 19:50:45 UTC 
The 3.8.0 release tarball is missing the README.android_emulator file (which is in the SVN repository, and mentioned in the README.android file in the tarball). Even if I ignore that and go through the build instructions in README.android, the step immediately following the export statements is to run "./autogen.sh". Unfortunately there is also no autogen.sh file in the tarball, so that doesn't work. (I assume this also breaks it for all platforms, but I haven't checked - I just got the source from SVN which did have an autogen.sh file).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download 3.8.0 tarball from http://valgrind.org/downloads/current.html
2. Unpack tarball
3. Try to build valgrind following the instructions in README.android
Actual Results:  
Instructions don't work because of missing files

Expected Results:  
Can build valgrind

Also r12983 includes autogen.sh in the tarfile.
