Hello Andrew,

to avoid the same problem in future it could make sense to add a file

autogen.sh
----------
#!/bin/sh

set -e

test -f configure.ac || {
  echo "Please, run this script in the top level project directory."
  exit
}

libtoolize --copy
aclocal -I m4
autoconf
autoheader
automake --add-missing --copy

echo "For installation instructions, please, refer to file INSTALL."
----------

If somebody wants to use a different version of autotools, he can simply
run the script.

Best regards

Heinrich Schuchardt
