scute will FTBFS against the next major libassuan release which drops
libassuan-config. That is because scute includes an outdated copy of
AM_PATH_LIBASSUAN() in m4/libassuan.m4 which cannot handle this upstream
change. Simply deleting m4/libassuan.m4 lets the build succeed. (A
slightly more involved fix would be to simply swthch to pkg-config.)

You can verify your fix by rebuilding after diverting libassuan-config like
this
dpkg-divert --rename --divert  /usr/bin/libassuan-config-disabled  --add 
/usr/bin/libassuan-config  # divert on

This change can be reverted with 
dpkg-divert --rename --remove /usr/bin/libassuan-config
