I wanted JSON output and I wanted all captured performance fields as
well as IP, Hostname and ASN (if available) normalized into their own
JSON fields and in a single object. Neither the CSV or XML output do
this for you. I also changed the default to --without-gtk.

It should first call the "configure" script and then run "make" again with the makefile that "configure" just generated.
If you're building from the git repository, you'll need to run:
./bootstrap.sh && ./configure && make
After compiling, install:
make install
