We do have a couple of submodules now, so this should be updated

> +git submodule init
> +git submodule update
> +# Generate configure script
> +make autotools

> +tar -cjf ltp-full-YYYYMMDD.tar.bz2 ltp-full-YYYYMMDD --exclude .git

			This is now outdated, I guess that we should
			include a template rather than this?
