Makefile is not available until after configure
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The `make` command fails when run *before* configure, this is confusing users which are not familiar with `automake`.

```bash
make distclean
make: *** No rule to make target `distclean'.  Stop.

make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
```
