Can anyone please explain to me what does this mean? I have been trying alot of times of make clean and do a make and make install. However, the same error still occur.
Please help.
Thanks.
It would mean that the target 'install-exec-am' is achieved. show us the makefile. Perhaps if you name the package someone in the forum may have some prior experience with that and can guide you.

dh_auto_install
DH_AUTO_INSTALL(1) Debhelper DH_AUTO_INSTALL(1)
NAME
dh_auto_install - automatically runs make install or similar
SYNOPSIS
dh_auto_install [buildsystemoptions] [debhelperoptions] [--params]
DESCRIPTION
dh_auto_install is a debhelper program that tries to automatically install built files. It does so by running the appropriate command for
the build system it detects the package uses. For example, if there's a Makefile and it contains a install target, then this is done by
running make (or MAKE, if the environment variable is set). If there is a setup.py or Build.PL, it is used. Note that the Ant build system
does not support installation, so dh_auto_install will not install files built using Ant.
Unless --destdir option is specified, the files are installed into debian/package/ if there is only one binary package. In the multiple
binary package case, the files are instead installed into debian/tmp/, and should be moved from there to the appropriate package build
directory using dh_install(1).
DESTDIR is used to tell make where to install the files. If the Makefile was generated by MakeMaker from a Makefile.PL, it will
automatically set PREFIX=/usr too, since such Makefiles need that.
This is intended to work for about 90% of packages. If it doesn't work, or tries to use the wrong install target, you're encouraged to skip
using dh_auto_install at all, and just run make install manually.
OPTIONS
See "BUILD SYSTEM OPTIONS" in debhelper(7) for a list of common build system selection and control options.
--destdir=directory
Install files into the specified directory. If this option is not specified, destination directory is determined automatically as
described in the "DESCRIPTION" section.
-- params
Pass params to the program that is run, after the parameters that dh_auto_install usually passes.
SEE ALSO
debhelper(7)
This program is a part of debhelper.
