[You example is down below]  

My entire file looks like this:

----START /var/lib/alternatives/automake-----
auto
/usr/bin/automake
aclocal
/usr/bin/aclocal

/usr/bin/automake-1.4
10
/usr/bin/aclocal-1.4
-----------END FILE----------

That's the entire thing, and it looks sick due to
the 1.4 references and lack of higher numbers....
