If you have these installed, type:

-$ autoreconf -i -s
+$ ./autogen.sh
This will take a while and may print a lot of messages containing
"warning: unquoted definition of..." which are harmless.
+If that fails, for instance because your files are named differently,
+you can override the program names by setting the environment variables
+AUTORECONF, AUTOCONF, AUTOHEADER (these match your autoconf version)
+ACLOCAL, AUTOMAKE (to match your automake version) and finally
+AUTOPOINT (to match your gettext version).
