I'm trying to build some packages from source, and I'm facing trouble that I don't understand despite lots of googling. This happens with some packages, while others compile and get packed normally. One of the softwares that fail to package is libva.

When I use;

export DH_VERBOSE=1 && dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -j4 -d --build=full --host-arch=amd64 --target-arch=amd64

I get this error;

checking build system type... Invalid configuration `./autogen.sh': machine `./autogen.sh' not recognized
configure: error: /bin/bash ./config.sub ./autogen.sh failed
 find ! -ipath "./debian/*" -a ! \( -path '*/.git/*' -o -path '*/.hg/*' -o -path '*/.bzr/*' -o -path '*/.svn/*' -o -path '*/CVS/*' \) -a -type f -exec md5sum {} + -o -type l -printf "symlink %p
" > debian/autoreconf.after
dh_autoreconf: ./autogen.sh ./autogen.sh returned exit code 1
make[1]: *** [debian/rules:12: override_dh_autoreconf] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/media/deyaa/BBuffer/buildfolder/intel/libva/libva-2.14.0'
make: *** [debian/rules:9: binary] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary subprocess returned exit status 2

I also have the architecture set up in the control file.

However when I run;

autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --enable-drm --enable-x11 --enable-glx --enable-wayland --enable-va-messaging

it compiles normally, but I face another problem trying to install it to the same folder under fakeroot.

$ fakeroot make install

I get similar errors while building other packages, like aria2, and intel-media.

I compile on debian buster, with stock gcc, glibc, and libtool.

Could you offer any help or pointers?
