gpsdrive-2.10pre3-svn with svn co

First I installed SVN, then as my user I ran the SVN commands as listed in your install instructions, except there was no "automake.sh " I simply did
#Begin SVN checkout
svn co https://gpsdrive.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gpsdrive/trunk gpsdrive-trunk
 cd gpsdrive-trunk
 cd build
 cmake ..
 make
 su
 make install
##End SVN install
