Description Christian Kellner 2016-12-12 16:22:25 UTC 
When using jhbuild to build gnome-battery-bench it currently fails on autogen.sh:

/home/gicmo/Code/gnome/gnome-battery-bench/autogen.sh --prefix /opt/gnome --disable-Werror  --disable-static --disable-gtk-doc 
+ aclocal --install
aclocal: error: 'configure.ac' is required
+ exit 1

and afterwards on ui resource generation:

glib-compile-resources --generate --target gnome-battery-bench.gresource.c /home/gicmo/Code/gnome/gnome-battery-bench/src/gnome-battery-bench.gresource.xml
/home/gicmo/Code/gnome/gnome-battery-bench/src/gnome-battery-bench.gresource.xml: Failed to locate “application.ui” in current directory.
Makefile:1321: recipe for target 'gnome-battery-bench.gresource.c' failed

Fix out-of-source builds

The autogen.sh called autoconf and friends in the current working
directory and therfore couldn't find the neccessary files.
Additionally for the proper generation of gnome-battery-bench.c
we need to include the actual source dir as an source directory.
