I'm guessing what you need is something like that one: libguile-ltdl.
Is there a -dev version?  Do you have it installed?

What version of automake do you have?  I think you need at least 1.9.

Are you running debian stable?  If so, you might have a hard time
making a suitably modern development environment.  Note: I don't use
debian, so I don't really know what I'm talking about.
