Setting up wxSQLit3, aotoconf, autoreconf responses

[Steve02]

I'm trying to setup a specific version of wxSQLite3, ver 3.5.3.
The instructions suggest using autoreconf to recreate the configure script.
https://github.com/utelle/wxsqlite3#install

Running autoreconf in terminal, from the wxSQLit3 directory containing the configure.ac file results in:

stv@HpNotebook ~/Downloads/wxsqlite3-3.5.3 $ autoreconf
Can't exec "aclocal": No such file or directory at /usr/share/autoconf/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm line 326.
autoreconf: failed to run aclocal: No such file or directory


I also tried using autconf it's results were as follows:

stv@HpNotebook ~/Downloads/wxsqlite3-3.5.3 $ autoconf
configure.ac:16: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:17: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
configure.ac:18: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_SILENT_RULES
configure.ac:28: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_FAILURE
configure.ac:65: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_WARN
configure.ac:69: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONDITIONAL

Where am I going wrong?
Any advice appreciated.

`aclocal' is provided by `automake'

Thanks ne555, you were just in time(r).

Installing automake solved it.
