I'm using

autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.59
automake (GNU automake) 1.9.1
libtoolize (GNU libtool) 1.5.14

But the problem is usully that the person that made the distribution didn't
install them correctly, so that that autoconf/aclocal(from automake) don't
find the appropriate macros from the other packages.
