[Rpcemu] Allegro not installed Mint 17

I have just moved from Mint 16 to Mint 17 and am trying to recompile
RPCEmu but it looks as if Allegro 4 is not installed, see the following
error:

./configure: line 4634: syntax error near unexpected token `,'
./configure: line 4634: ` AM_PATH_ALLEGRO(, , as_fn_error $? "building
RPCemu requires Allegro to be installed" "$LINENO" 5)'

In spite of having done this:

sudo apt-get install build-essential subversion liballegro4.2
liballegro4.2-dev liballegro4.2-plugin-jack unzip wget

with the following response:

Note, selecting 'liballegro4-dev' instead of 'liballegro4.2-dev'
build-essential is already the newest version.
unzip is already the newest version.
wget is already the newest version.
liballegro4-dev is already the newest version.
subversion is already the newest version.
liballegro4.2-plugin-jack is already the newest version.
liballegro4.2 is already the newest version.
0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 15 not to upgrade.

The Synaptic package manager lists the following as installed:

liballegro4.2, liballegro4.2-plugin-jack, liballegro4.4,
liballegro4-dev, liballegro4.4-pulgin-alsa

Any suggestions, as always, most welcome.

Sean.
