Approximately two years ago I was able to compile an older version of avrdude-build-script on a x86-pc running Linux Mint 18 or 19. Now I tried to compile the official release on both platforms Linux Mint and Arch GNU/Linux, but it didn't work.

…register len size_tpreviously had to be changed to…register unsigned (long) int lento avoid a "different type error" andAC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])still has to be commented out, which is done by libhidapi buildfile.After I updated these old packages, changed the version numbers and fixed the other errors by editing the build scripts, everything compiles without manual intervention now.
