Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] bootstrapping SVN checkout

Hello,

I've just done a SVN checkout of the sources into a new directory.
I have troubles to "bootstrap" this version as there is no "configure" file.
So I run automake (version 1.6.3 is installed) and I get:

andreas10:~/development/ws/wireshark afink$ automake
configure.in:17: no proper implementation of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE was found,
configure.in:17: probably because aclocal.m4 is missing...
configure.in:17: You should run aclocal to create this file, then
configure.in:17: run automake again.
configure.in: required file `./mkinstalldirs' not found
configure.in: required file `./missing' not found
configure.in:1348: required file `./config.h.in' not found
Makefile.am: required file `./depcomp' not found
/usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/lang-compile.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL
configure.in:1335: required file `./ltmain.sh' not found
...

and so forth
anyone have a hint to get started on the SVN?
compilation of the normal tar.gz files works usually (besides all the bugs which have been fixed in the meantime)
