I had the same problem last night. My solution was:

apt-get --compile source automake1.7

install the generated .deb

enter some directory in the source tree and do a make install there.

this needed to be done for 2 directories (automake and aclocal),
I don't remember the names. Check where the missing files are.

obviously the .deb package is incomplete.
