Autoconfig, config not installable

77
Hi,
I have to install and run some files of USB/IP., to see its working and later make changes in it..its an open source project developed by hirofuchi.
The point is:
I have downloaded the source code..but unable to compile it.getting n no. of errors.
These are some of the contents of readme given in src folder of that complete package having code.
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. [Install]
  2.     0. Skip here if you see a configure script.
  3.         $ ./autogen.sh
  4.  
  5.     1. Compile & install.
  6.         $ ./configure
  7.         $ make install
  8.  
  9.     2. Compile & install USB/IP drivers if not yet.
  10.  
  11.  
There is one file named autogen.sh in src folder which i have to open as given in first instruction.
i went til that file by using multiple cd.
but when i write that command this comes:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. + autoreconf -i -f -v
  2. ./autogen.sh: 1: autoreconf: not found
so when i tried installing the needed package,this comes:
command written by me:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. sudo apt-get install autoconf
response:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Reading package lists... Done
  2. Building dependency tree       
  3. Reading state information... Done
  4. Package autoconf is not available, but is referred to by another package.
  5. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
  6. is only available from another source
  7. E: Package autoconf has no installation candidate
  8.  
There is another file called install, some of its contents are:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. The simplest way to compile this package is:
  2.  
  3.   1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
  4.      `./configure' to configure the package for your system.
  5.  
  6.      Running `configure' might take a while.  While running, it prints
  7.      some messages telling which features it is checking for.
  8.  
there is a file called configure.ac in src
which is not getting opened either!
by ./configure command and ./configure --help is also not working.

I upgraded the system; with download manager.
So i could install autoconf now.
by same
sudo apt-get install autoconf
command
but there are some errors in that downloaded version.
after running the same command again
./autoconfig.sh
there are some errors in the downloaded autoconf as follows:
~/usbip-0.1.7/src$ ./autogen.sh
+ autoreconf -i -f -v
Can't exec "libtoolize": No such file or directory at /usr/bin/autoreconf line 188.

Sorry guys this is not any error in automake as i thought it was.
Actually its one of the options of automake --add-missing adds the missing common files in a package needed by the command itself.
But am still not sure is that working fine or not.,i'll let you know.
