Protobuf installation fails due to version mismatch of Automake

I was following the answer on: How can I install protoc on Ubuntu 16.04?

But, my protobuf installation make fails with versioning issue in Automake

/protobuf/missing automake-1.15 --foreign

configure.ac:48: error: version mismatch.  This is Automake 1.15,

configure.ac:48: but the definition used by this AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE

configure.ac:48: comes from Automake 1.15.1.  You should recreate

configure.ac:48: aclocal.m4 with aclocal and run automake again.

WARNING: 'automake-1.15' is probably too old.

         You should only need it if you modified 'Makefile.am' or

         'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.

         The 'automake' program is part of the GNU Automake package:

         <http://www.gnu.org/software/automake>

         It also requires GNU Autoconf, GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:

         <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf>

         <http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>

         <http://www.perl.org/>

I'm curious why make would even need to invoke automake here - that should only happen if the configure script became out-of-date (for example, if configure.ac was changed after you ran ./configure). Perhaps it would be useful to add the output of ls -l config* to your question so we can see the timestamps?
