Needed build instructions

[simolev]

I feel there's a need for build instructions since this repo doesn't come with the paradigmal ./configure.
Also, there's a weirdness in that both po/makefile.in and po/Makefile.in.in are needed.
For latest commit 53c164b from 14 Sep 2015, this is what worked for me on Ubuntu 20.04:

git clone https://github.com/ustramooner/pxtools.git
cd pxtools
apt install automake gettext
cp po/Makefile.in.in po/Makefile.in
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install

After "make" command i get below errors. Can You help resolve this? Ubuntu 22.04

ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Pulpit/pxview/pxtoolss$ make
make all-recursive
make[1]: Wejście do katalogu '/home/ubuntu/Pulpit/pxview/pxtoolss'
Making all in src

To me it compiled fine on Ubuntu 24.04 based on instructions above.
