Looking for tips to install varnish-modules

[Kari Cowan]

Anyways - I ran configure instead of bootstrap, had to add the
--disable-dependency-tracking option to get through it.

But what to do about this?

# make
CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/sh
'/varnish-modules/build-aux/missing' aclocal-1.16 -I m4 -I
/usr/share/aclocal
/varnish-modules/build-aux/missing: line 81: aclocal-1.16: command not found
WARNING: 'aclocal-1.16' is missing on your system.
         You should only need it if you modified 'acinclude.m4' or
         'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.
         The 'aclocal' program is part of the GNU Automake package:
         <https://www.gnu.org/software/automake>
         It also requires GNU Autoconf, GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:
         <https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf>
         <https://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>
         <https://www.perl.org/>
