Now, I have the following problem.
I can run './configure' with several options like:
--enable-redhat, --enable-suse etcetera to install the
start scripts. There isn't an option --enable-debian.
You need an init script which will start up afpd, and whatever else in
that package you use. (In particular, note that you need a cnid_xxx
daemon; it does some housekeeping for the AppleShare catalog. I use
cnid_metad, primarily because it's easy to deal with.)
Essentially, all you need the script to do is this:
  /usr/local/sbin/afpd
  /usr/local/sbin/cnid_metad
I did that manually, at the command line, while testing. Then I adapted
a Debian's "skeleton" init script to the task, which I paste below. Then
you need to make the appropriate symlinks in /etc/rcN.d, or use
sysv-rc-conf to do that for you, or use file-rc. I use file-rc.
(Warning, those familiar with Debian init scripts might find this ugly.
Maybe this will shame me into cleaning it up and submitting it to
upstream :)
