I ran this through Google Translate. It reads:

"config.guess: unable to guess system type

solution:

1. First report upstream that their config.guessand config.subfiles are too old.
2. Then try to update config.guess with autoreconf -ficommand
3. If the upstream config.guess file is too old to be updated /usr/share/autoconf/build-aux/, copy the config.guess and config.subfiles in the directory to the local.
4. Submit a PR with a link to your upstream report.
5. Keep track of your upstream reports, and delete patches after upstream updates to concurrent releases.”

I checked libetonyek on opengrok, and there doesn’t seem to be a config.guess file?
