[Monday morning debian rant...] I think you're semi-doomed if you're
using debian.  There are others out there with other opinions, but the
vast majority of build problems we see are associated with debian.


On to your problem...

Are the versions of automake, autoconf and libtool that you have
installed at least at the versions that are called for in the README?

Are you able to build any other programs that uses the autotools?
