Error Generated by autoconf

[Alangi Derick]

Hello,
       I want to install Strace in my system, i am using Linux operating
system which is debian + wheezy and when i run autoconf configure.ac to
generate configure script, it gives me an error and the conversion fails
making me not to be able to install Strace. What can i do? This is the
error it gives me:

configure.ac:9: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:10: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
configure.ac:221: error: possibly undefined macro:
AC_LITTLE_ENDIAN_LONG_LONG
configure.ac:816: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONDITIONAL

What is the meaning of this and how can i solve it?
