I just bumped into this too.  Saucy has automake 1.13 but only version
3.6 of gnome-common, which doesn't know about automake versions that
new.  So when I run ./autogen.sh in any GNOME source directory, I see
this:

checking for automake >= 1.9...
  testing automake-1.12... not found.
  testing automake-1.11... not found.
  testing automake-1.10... not found.
  testing automake-1.9... not found.
***Error***: You must have automake >= 1.9 installed
  to build epiphany.  Download the appropriate package for
  from your distribution or get the source tarball at
    http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/automake/automake-1.9.tar.gz
