I'm on ubuntu 7.10 32-bit (different from your system), but FWIW the
following may give a clue:

$ sudo apt-file update
$ apt-file -i search avformat.h
libavformat-dev: usr/include/ffmpeg/avformat.h
libmyth-dev: usr/include/mythtv/ffmpeg/avformat.h

$ dpkg -l | grep -i ffmpeg
ii  ffmpeg
3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu4.1       multimedia player, server and encoder
ii  gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg            0.10.2-2ubuntu1
       FFmpeg plugin for GStreamer
ii  libavcodec1d                           3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu4.1
     ffmpeg codec library
ii  libavformat1d                          3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu4.1
     ffmpeg file format library
ii  libavutil1d
3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu4.1       ffmpeg utility library
ii  libswscale1d                            3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu4.1
      ffmpeg video scaling library

and my configure script has:
--with-ffmpeg \
--with-ffmpeg-includes=/usr/include/ffmpeg \

Good luck,

Craig
