That's odd.  I have automake19 installed here, and it doesn't fail with
this error message, when I rebuild it:

    keramida@kobe:/home/keramida$ pkg_info | grep automake
    automake-1.9.6      GNU Standards-compliant Makefile generator (1.9)
    keramida@kobe:/home/keramida$

That's possible.

Mahmoud, can you show us your PATH and other environment settings?
This should be easy to do with:

    root# env | sort
