automake/debian packaging

[Peter Robinson <peter.robinson@t-online.de>]

Hi all,

I have written some C code that I would like to package as a dynamic 
library using automake/autoconf and thence as a debian package. I am 
afraid I have had zero experience with these tools, and the documents I 
have found online are either too simple or too complex to get started. 
Sorry if this is a bit OT, but does anyone on this list have any tips on 
tutorials for creating a dynamic C library from a source tree with the 
following structure:


public_header_file.h (perhaps in directory called include)
directory_with_lots_of_c_and_private_h_files (nicer still would be 
multiple separate directories!)

thanks Peter
