how to install lprotobuf-c in ubuntu for c language

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lprotobuf-c
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [test_apl] Error 1

These are the errors I'm getting.

I have installed apt-get install protobuf-c-compiler, but makefile is still not running.

Right installation process for protobuf-c-compiler which require
When compiling under Ubuntu (12.04 LTS), you will need the following dependencies: 

sudo apt-get install build-essential libxml2-dev libgeos++-dev libpq-dev libbz2-dev proj libtool automake

If you want PBF read support, you will also need libprotobuf-c0-dev and protobuf-c-compiler:

sudo apt-get install libprotobuf-c0-dev protobuf-c-compiler

libprotobuf-c0-dev needs to be at least in version 0.14-1. Ubuntu <= 10.04 has only 0.11, so you need to build it from source. To compile from source:

sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler libprotobuf-dev libprotoc-dev
svn checkout http://protobuf-c.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ protobuf-c-read-only
cd protobuf-c-read-only
./autogen.sh
make
sudo make install

After that, follow the from source instructions.

For Linking error: Linking of libprotobuf-c.so failing while building executable.
