I did a straight install as a desktop with other things added in off the package selection and then have added a handful of rpm's since then but nothing that touches this.
May actually be a problem with automake and automake15 or I have suffered from file system corruption. I'll fsck the partition and see if that helps.
/usr/share/aclocal is definitely not a 258M file in any of the packages we provide. (As an aside, I would suggest using -Uvh instead of -ivh, and avoiding --nodeps like the plague...)
