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 ?
