This means that Autools generated files (a collection of packages, one 
of which is Automake) are being regenerated for some reason.  In this 
case, it is having a problem because either Autoconf is not installed, 
or the installed version is not the same as used to produce existing 
cached files in the source tree.

If using a release tarball as the source, then this will only happen 
if the build rules specifically request it, or if the underlying 
filesystem does not replicate file timestamps correctly.

When dealing with other existing build systems, it is not uncommon to 
find added build rules to re-autotool the source tree in order to pick 
up
