I have these automake releases installed : 1.9.6-r2 1.8.5-r3 1.7.9-r1 
1.6.3 1.4_p6 1.5

Tried that first and couldn't find much information.  I noticed that

Because if it is I'm way outdated.

I have libextractor installed, and tracker is still trying to build the 
internal one. (libextractor version 0.5.14 to be specific).
