If it Provides: automake-1.16 but doesn't contain /usr/bin/automake-1.16,
isn't that going to defeat the purpose of the dependency in libltdl-dev,
which was added to resolve #905841, #906394, #906395, #906423, #906501,
#906507 by making sure that it could find the then-current automake
version?

It would probably be useful if the maintainers of the Autotools family
(autoconf, automake and libtool) could coordinate to make sure none of
those three packages are breaking the others when they're updated.
