Configure error about "error: cannot find input file: `asn1/Makefile.in'"

[QinLongFei]

When running ./configure, there is always an error about "config.status: error: cannot find input file: `asn1/Makefile.in'".

I have try it on two different Ubuntu and have the same result.

You can run autoreconf -iv (i.e. skip the test -f configure) and the asn1/Makefile.in file should be generated.
