Yes, that line in the documentation is not - no longer - valid.

I suppose it's a typo and should be "cmake .." (which I gave).
Yes, that line is also not valid.
I did

However, I think it's customary to use something like

Allegro didn't install correctly.
For me configure works, but make ends with:

And then if I run the program it says:

./mininim: error while loading shared libraries: liballegro.so.5.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I could probably figure out what the problem is there (maybe a symbolic link would fix it), but I'm busy with other things.
Regardless, if we both can't make it work out of the box with the available instructions, it needs work.
