source code tarball

I am looking for an Abiword gzipped tarball, so I can run ./configure,
make and make install like a normal linux package. I understand that
the developers have fallen in love with something new, just as other
developers have fallen in love with cmake and so on. But I don't
have time to learn new install method every time I download a
package. So is there a conventional tarball with Makefile etc.
available for Abiword?

I guess ./configure; make; make install was just too simple and
foolproof.
