No, it is not generated when the project is created. It is generated by 
a script name autogen.sh or the program autoconf. In Anjuta, it's a bit 
hidden because it's done automatically when you click on 
Build->Configure project. You can force the generation by click in the 
check box regenerate project.

If this library doesn't use pkg-config, I think that's normal.

When the library use pkg-config, you need to add this "library" to all 
the programs (=target) in your project needing it.

These are generated when you configure your project. These are 
intermediate files between Makefile.am and Makefile.


> Well Makefie.am is still a Makefile, right?

Not really, they are not directly used to build your project, as the 
configure script will generate real Makefile from them. You cannot use 
them as makefile without autotools. But you can add in them make rules 
those will be copied in the generated makefile.

Yes.
