The issue is not limited to libtool, by the way.
Before you release a source package, you are supposed to make dist.

To do make you must run configure, and of course configure
fails on dependency check - so again you either install
stuff on your build machine, or start doing ugly hacks around
autotools/autoconf limitations.
