I suggest you look at the output of gst-package --prepare.

Anyway.

If you use this...

> m4_include([build-aux/gst-package.m4])

... you should instead use aclocal.  No need to put the files in 
build-aux/ (especially gst-package.m4), they will automatically be put 
in m4/ instead by aclocal.

Add here:

AM_PATH_GST([3.2])

Add here:

AC_CONFIG_FILES([gst], [chmod +x gst])
