Hello,

I am trying to build Subsurface according to the instructions on the
website, so I started with trying to build libdivecomputer.
Unfortunately, autoreconf -- install fails with:

Can't exec "libtoolize": No such file or directory at
/usr/bin/autoreconf2.50 line 196.
Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at
/usr/bin/autoreconf2.50 line 196.
src/Makefile.am:4: Libtool library used but `LIBTOOL' is undefined
src/Makefile.am:4:   The usual way to define `LIBTOOL' is to add `LT_INIT'
src/Makefile.am:4:   to `configure.ac' and run `aclocal' and `autoconf' again.
src/Makefile.am:4:   If `LT_INIT' is in `configure.ac', make sure
src/Makefile.am:4:   its definition is in aclocal's search path.
autoreconf2.50: automake failed with exit status: 1


I run Kubuntu 12.04 64-bit, with autoconf and autoconf2.13 installed.
With only autoconf installed I got the same error.
I am not a developer or programmer, so I don know how to fix this.
Can anyone help?

Kind regards,

Menno
