configure.ac:4: error: your implementation of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE comes from an
configure.ac:4: old Automake version. You should recreate aclocal.m4
configure.ac:4: with aclocal and run automake again
WARNING: 'automake-1.15' is probably too old.
You should only need it if you modified 'Makefile.am' or
'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.
The 'automake' program is part of the GNU Automake package:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/automake>
It also requires GNU Autoconf, GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf>
<http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>
<http://www.perl.org/>
