The hard part isn't making a generic packager. The hard part is that
each system has different ideas of how packaging should be done. So
in order to do this properly you basically have to maintain all the
information in parallel, have access to all the different kinds of
systems, debug separately, etc. That is, a generic package making
tool probably doesn't save you much work.
That said, if someone is interested in working on this, I can tell you
how to use automake-generated Makefiles to get some of the information
you will need.
