How do I resolve "configure.ac: don't use Gettext ... Libtool Automake"? Autoconf error on GNU / Linux?

I am new to GNU / Linux and compilation. I am unable to compile Aegisub from source. On GNU / Linux Debian 7.7 Wheezy amd64, when I run sh autogen.sh in Aegisub, I get the following output:

$ sh autogen.sh 
Running autoreconf...
autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext
autoreconf: running: aclocal --force 
autoreconf: configure.ac: tracing
autoreconf: configure.ac: AM_GNU_GETTEXT is used, but not AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Libtool
autoreconf: running: /usr/bin/autoconf --force
autoreconf: running: /usr/bin/autoheader --force
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Automake
autoreconf: Leaving directory `.'
Now run ./configure and then make to build Aegisub

autogen.sh contains the following:

#!/bin/sh
set -e

echo Running autoreconf...
autoreconf -ivf "$@"

echo Now run ./configure and then make to build Aegisub

      

Version Information:

$ ./configure -V
Aegisub configure aegisub_version
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.69

$ autoconf -V
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.69

$ automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.11.6

$ gettext -V
gettext (GNU gettext-runtime) 0.18.1

$ libtool --version
libtool (GNU libtool) 2.4.2

      

What do these results mean and how can I solve them? Thanks for reading.
