I am unable to build on Ubuntu disco as the module DebugCount.pm has disappeared in the version of texinfo that comes with Ubuntu 19.04.

Please let me know if this just a "me being a n00b issue". Don't really have a ton of experience building things like this from scratch.

To answer my own question, and for any others having trouble building this, here's how I managed to build it:

wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/texinfo/texinfo-5.1.tar.gz
tar -xvf texinfo-5.1.tar.gz
./configure (in whatever directory you unpacked texinfo into)
make
sudo make install

I also needed the following extra dependencies:

sudo apt install inkscape
sudo apt install libcanberra-gtk-module libcanberra-gtk3-module

@fylke Fylke Would you consider attaching your build files to this issue or hosting them somewhere and provide a link ?
Best
