It happens because you use a source code "snapshot": https://github.com/vcftools/vcftools/archive/v0.1.14.tar.gz Such things never contain "configure". But look at: https://github.com/vcftools/vcftools/releases There is a real release (made with "make dist"): https://github.com/vcftools/vcftools/releases/download/v0.1.14/vcftools-0.1.14.tar.gz It contains all the required stuff, so there is no need to use autotools and to run "autogen.sh". -- Alex
