Happens both with system-tools-backends-1.4 and 2.1. Apparently there is new gnome-system-tools long available, but this depends on liboobs.
...and the file your errormessages tells you to attach, what does it say? For mine it told me to downgrade stb from 2.x to 1.x which worked for m but without it I can't see if this is something similar.

Weird. It should find it inside /usr/share/aclocal/system-tools-backends.m4 as installed by system-tools-backends package. Works for me at least: checking for system-tools-backends >= 1.3.0... yes (/usr/share/setup-tool-backends/scripts)
Apparently this one will be deprecated anyway with liboobs and g-s-t-2.17 Marking WONTFIX...
