I've downloaded this window manager from github and it has a autogen.sh script but it failed each time.
I don't know what could happen or how to fix it:
Output from ./autogen.sh:

Please add the files

progtest.m4
from the /usr/share/aclocal directory to your autoconf macro directory
or directly to your aclocal.m4 file.
You will also need config.guess and config.sub, which you can get from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config/.

automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
