I seems that NEWS is not included in dist on your machine.

Here is my Makefile:

DIST_COMMON = README $(am__configure_deps) $(srcdir)/Makefile.am \
        $(srcdir)/Makefile.in $(srcdir)/config.h.in \
        $(srcdir)/libvirt.pc.in $(srcdir)/libvirt.spec.in \
        $(srcdir)/mingw32-libvirt.spec.in $(top_srcdir)/configure \
        ABOUT-NLS AUTHORS COPYING COPYING.LIB ChangeLog INSTALL NEWS \
        TODO build-aux/compile build-aux/config.guess \
        build-aux/config.rpath build-aux/config.sub build-aux/depcomp \
        build-aux/install-sh build-aux/ltmain.sh build-aux/mdate-sh \
        build-aux/missing build-aux/mkinstalldirs \
        build-aux/texinfo.tex

The DIST_COMMON contains NEWS.

Does DIST_COMMON contain NEWS in your Makefile?
