Ok so when you download the file openbts you have to download smqueue, siauthServe and Asterisk. so all of directories we will copy into a directory which it includes them all.
mkdir RangeNet or you can download the development where everything is wrapped up.

The reason why automake is failing is because it cannot find the file Makefile.in. So in this case as you enter RangeNet folder do the following in the directory

root@ubuntu/RangeNet#git submodule init
(its going to come up with initializing a couple of sentences)
root@ubuntu/RangeNet#git submodule update
(this will update the folder by downloading the file Makefile.in the NodeManager directory)

Than after do:
root@ubuntu/RangeNet#make clean
root@ubuntu/RangeNet#make
root@ubuntu/RangeNet#make install
root@ubuntu/RangeNet#ldconfig

If you are not root make sure you do sudo.
Also its better to compile openbts in /usr/src/ folder but I haven't met any challenges in any other folder
Enjoy.

Try git clone --recursive "openbts url". it will pick all files for Commonlib and NodeManager
