What is wrong?

On my system, I encountered a problem with pip3 installing "cryptocurve". After some digging in, I realized I was encountering this problem: ofek/coincurve#89 . After installing "autoconf" I was able to successfully install trinity.

How can it be fixed

I believe the only thing lacking is "autoreconf" which on my Debian Buster host required the "autoconf" package. So in the install documentation, it would be good to include "autoconf" along with the others (snappy... leveldb...)
