Missing macro 'AM_PATH_LD10K1' not found in library

[GitHub issues - opened]

alsa-project/alsa-tools issue #7 was opened from ronohara:

New Linux Mint 20.0 install (Ubuntu 20.04 based) on HP X360 with TigerLake hardware.

This distro only has lib-alsa-1.2.2   ... so I need to compile/install the latest alsa stuff from source

I have the kernel working at seeing the hardware - in the mainline 5.13 kernel it is already available. Installed the firmware and UCM2 stuff.  'speaker-test' works ... lots of details in this closed bug: https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/issues/2700#issuecomment-854033711

Installed alsa-lib from source, and alsa-utils .... but compiling alsa-tools (gitcompile) fails.  This macro needs to be installed, but I am wondering what the best way is ...?
