Using hand-written Makefiles is bad, as you lose many features of the
package infrastructure: legal-info, source, source-check, etc. Please
don't use hand-written Makefiles, use one of the available package
infrastructures. Doing the conversion is generally very easy. If you
don't know how to do it, please post your current .mk file and we'll
give you some hints.

Best regards,

Thomas
