You keep dropping hints like this all the time Alex :)

Honestly, though, I'm not sure whats involved or whether I'm capable of

I wasn't sure exactly what to put there yet, but this was a Makefile for

I have a pkg-descr file setup. That should be right, isn't it?

Oh, dear. I'll have to go hunting for them then.
