You didn't say which Linux, so I'm assuming Debian or Ubuntu.

I believe this should get the needed packages: apt-get install automake
There may be more you need to install though.

I'm sorry but I don't have any experience at all with those old servers. My best guess is that the source is written for an older version of automake but I have no idea which. Looks like you might be missing some XML library, but I just don't know.

I hope someone else will be able to help you further.

Edit: You could try installing libxml2 apt-get install libxml2 and create the config directory mkdir config and see where that gets you. The rest looks like mostly deprecation warnings.

Wrong section guys.

I'm curious, did you even do this OP?
apt install build-essential

You should not normally have to install automake manually.
