Hi, it calls the command from ${WORSPACE} which in this case is

/home/jenkins/builds/mlt

Coincidently if I type in ./configure from jenkins build step it configures fine, but our build
system fails. ( python scripts that builds/syncs etc ) So perhaps python is doing something funky.
This is the only job that fails like this though.. I tried in the python scripts config file:
{sources}/configure
./configure
{sources}/configure .

All failed. I am not entirely sure why our build scripts don't like this one.
email or sgclark on irc is fine with me, thanks for any help you can give me,
Scarlett
