this sounds good, its nicer to add this to the makefile-engine her makefile
for haiku
http://cgit.haiku-os.org/haiku/tree/data/develop
packageInfo to add, its ok the same way as with rdef
The point are, in the makefile are have some stuff he can auto gen to
packeinfo
eg. i can in the makefile add the VERSION it is empty to used from rdef or
RSRCS. Ok we can add the packageInfo as separately eg. PACKAGEINFO =
But what happens when the file not add or exist? the minimum we must add
in the makefile form makefile-engine a NAME, TYPE
I prefer to improved the makefile-engine and add the support for building a
hpkg.
packageInfo are good for non native apps, like POSIX ports or other ports
but for 100% Haiku native apps its good to used makefile-engine makefiles,
thats easy to make fast a app, lib, addon or driver etc.

make hpkg // build a package
The makefile I use for DriveEncryption actually allows to build a package
automatically [1].
It's actually pretty basic, and at least for applications it shouldn't be
impossible to come up with a generic solution.
However, you would need to write a .PackageInfo file, and make this
available via the makefile.
Bye,
Axel.
