That won't change the problem: it's the build of detex-src/detex.c that fails, because it misses detex-src/$(am__dirstamp) But the LLM suggestion is not completely idiotic, it's just shifted because it just took the common issue rather than actually understanding the real issue: adding BUILT_SOURCES = detex-src/$(am__dirstamp) makes the build go fine because it tells automake to make sure to build this directory before anything else.
