The problem with running autoreconf instead of just autoconf is that you
have to make sure that the build system is completely compatible with
newer versions of the autotools. That's why I chose to just run autoconf
to regenerate the configure file. If you want to use dh-autoreconf, you
either have to create those missing files or adjust the automake
initialization in configure.in like:
--- configure.in.orig 2003-12-14 08:42:54.000000000 +0000
+++ configure.in 2013-08-18 06:41:40.000000000 +0000

AC_CANONICAL_TARGET
-AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(gltron, 0.70)
+AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([foreign])

With the "foreign" option you tell automake to be less strict when
checking required files.
Hope that helps
