This seems to be a bug in automake1.11, which steals the "Automake"
entry from the latest version.

In the /usr/share/info/automake-1.11.info.gz file:

START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
* Automake: (automake-1.11).         Making GNU standards-compliant Makefiles.
END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY

In the /usr/share/info/automake-1.16.info.gz file:

START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
* Automake: (automake-1.16).         Making GNU standards-compliant Makefiles.
END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY

Other packages use the alternatives mechanism, which should probably
be better if done correctly.
