alcohol was a typo from my operating system.

when running autoreconf -i I get this:

autoreconf -i
aclocal: warning: autoconf input should be named 'configure.ac', not 'configure.in'
aclocal: warning: couldn't open directory 'm4': No such file or directory
automake: warning: autoconf input should be named 'configure.ac', not 'configure.in'

What's alcohol?

autoreconf -i produces a configure script just fine on my jessie/amd64
installation. There is only a minor warning regarding configure.{in,ac}.
configure does not complain either.
make produces some -Wformat warnings, nothing scary.
openggsn does not seem to be broken at all.

Kind regards,
