I haven’t touched this in some time. Given the Autoconf errors I wonder if this stems from the big 2.70 release a few years ago and it needs maintenance. Unfortunately I can’t promise time to fix this up, you either need to get hacking, find a binary or build it in a container. You might find it helpful to look at the CI in this repository for a working example.
I got it to build on Fedora 41 and Ubuntu 24.04 in a container. You have to install the libtool package.
