dolfin/swig/modules/mesh/dependencies.txt is not present

Firstly a newbie alert. I am doing a fresh install of dolfin and and I am struggling with the following error.

CMake Error at dolfin/swig/modules/mesh/CMakeLists.txt:31 (file):
file Internal CMake error when trying to open file:
/home/meenakshi/local/fenics/dolfin/dolfin/swig/modules/mesh/dependencies.txt
for reading.

I did find a related bug reported in https://bitbucket.org/fenics-project/dolfin/issue/19/missing-file-dolfin-swig-modules-fem

but I have the latest source and the change suggested was already there. Still I get the error.

Can someone help me out here? What do I have to do?

Have you run:

cmake/scripts/generate-all

after you have grabbed the source?
