autoreconf --install
in the libdivecomputer directory should take care of that.

The Android build instructions assume that this is a libdivecomputer directory that has already been used for builds.
I guess we could should fix that in the Android build

It looks like the Android build.sh doesn't do that, yet.

Goes to show you that whatever we do, we always make assumptions.
