Hello. Same error @Marculonis21 said.
autoreconf: 'configure.ac' or 'configure.in' is required
and i tried this: apt install build-essential libboost-all-dev cmake flex... but this not the solution

fix the problem and install i3-gaps:
$ sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:regolith-linux/stable
$ sudo apt install i3-gaps

@jpasosa

If you follow the install instructions on i3gaps GitHub page, you can install it easily.

Let me know if you can’t figure it out.

If you replace the line on file: "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/regolith-linux-ubuntu-release-jammy.list". For me it worked, but i don't no if the best option for this.
