Isn't automake the GNU program for using with autoconf ?

automake creates Makefile.in's out of Makefile.am's. The Makefile.in's will
be processed by configure (which itself is created by autoconf out of
configure.in) to Makefiles.

Automake does support the GNU standard, a less restrict one, and (perhaps)
the gnits standard (the new GNU standard). Will there be automake support
for Debian packages ?

Thank you,
Marcus
