It seems to me that you don't have grep installed.

It's strange, since grep is even available at CentOS docker image as it's a basic tool, so maybe your instance got grepremoved for some reason.

Try to install it back with:
yum install grep

It seems /bin/grep: line 1: lrwxrwxrwx.: command not found is misleading.

So far I am unable to reproduce this on CentOS7 with only the packages provided by the image + git + automake.

Is automake installed, as well as all required dependencies to build s3fs installed? It would also help if you tell the s3fs version you are trying to compile (I guess it's just master branch, from the Git repository) and the RHEL version

If you do not need s3fs from master, remember that the latest stable is available at the EPEL repositories.

It looks like you are missing m4; try yum install m4.

That could fix it yes. But I wonder how is it that aclocal is present (as autogen.sh can't even run without it), while m4 is absent.

m4 is a dependency of the package automake that provides aclocal.

So basically if you remove the package m4, automake and autoconf are removed, and then autogen.sh just complains about aclocal being missing:

[root@15f18b5fa25a s3fs-fuse]# yum remove -q m4

@rosamdnb I am curious: how are you managing the devel toolchain? With yum, or just building everything (including automake, autoconfig, m4, etc) manually?

Please reopen if the provided suggestion does not resolve your issues. Also consider using the distribution packages to avoid having to compile s3fs yourself.
