ZSNES 1.42 won't compile

I've tried to compile ZSNES 1.42 on Ubuntu, and when writing

"sh ./autogen.sh && gmake && gmake install"

in the src-directory, I get the following message:

"Generating build information using aclocal and autoconf...
./autogen.sh: line 6: sdl-config: command not found
./autogen.sh: line 6: aclocal: command not found
./autogen.sh: line 7: autoconf: command not found
checking build system type... configure: error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one"

I have installed all software that the install.txt instructs me to. Anyone who's encountered this kind of problem? If you know what I'm doing wrong, please reply.

You need sdl development stuff, as well as autoconf and automake.

apt-get install build-essential
apt-get install libsdl12-dev
apt-get install nasm
apt-get install libpng-dev
apt-get install zlib-dev

additionally, Ubuntu does *not* have 'gmake'; just use 'make'.
