autoconf automake and aclocal

[Lol Durst]

I really don't know anything about automake, autoconf
and aclocal but i have some problems with it. I have
installed an personal application which works. i've
benn told so but the point is that there is a bug when
i try ./configure.

Here are my files  :

when i do a ./configure here is what i get :
configure: error: can not find sources in . or ..

if i try an autoconf from the configure.in file i get
:
configure.in:7: error: m4_defn: undefined macro:
_m4_divert_diversion
autoconf/c.m4:471: AC_PROG_CC is expanded from...
configure.in:7: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1

an automake gives me that :
configure.in:7: error: m4_defn: undefined macro:
_m4_divert_diversion
autoconf/c.m4:471: AC_PROG_CC is expanded from...
configure.in:7: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
configure.in: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' must be used
configure.in: required file `./mkinstalldirs' not
found
configure.in: required file `./missing' not found
automake: no `Makefile.am' found or specified

here is my configure.in :

configure script.

BUG-REPORT-ADDRESS)

here it is, sorry to give you so much code in a single
post.
if you have any ideas or need some more details in
order to help me don't hesitate
ps : i use automake 1.7.3 and autoconf 2.57
