I modified the dists/ubuntu/build script to build from the git source in the top level folder `libmatekbd`, however trying to confiure to make from git source fails. Using the build script in the distros/ubuntu folder downloads and compiles into a .deb properly.

script used:

```
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --libexecdir=/usr/bin --disable-static --disable-pulse --disable-schemas-install --enable-polkit
```

The error:

```
config.status: error: cannot find input file: `libmatekbd/Makefile.in'
```

A similar issue occurs with the git source for `mate-settings-daemon`, and this package can only be compiled using the build script in the distros/ubuntu folder, and not manually from git source.
