You should not need automake (and friends) installed if you are building a
distribution LAM/MPI 7.0 tarball. You should only need automake installed
if you are building from CVS.
More specifically: the auto* tools should *not* be running when you simply
do "make" or "make install". The auto* tools will only run if the source
data files (e.g., Makefile.am) is more recent than the generated files
(e.g., Makefile.in or Makefile). If they are running during a "make" or
"make install" from a lam-7.0.tar.* tarball, this may indicate timestamp
discrepancies between the machine that you are building on and the NFS
server (at least, we've seen this behavior before). This is not so much a
problem with LAM as a [reasonable] assumption that the Automake package
makes.
Can you verify that all the timestamps are correct?
