I'm not saying you can't - I'm only trying to get people up to speed as quickly as possible with their first application installed on their phone. It so happens that since I know autotools best (and, frankly, there's the best docs for it of all the build systems on Maemo) I used that one. Perhaps you would like to help improve things further and create a "your first Fremantle Qt app" section in the Packaging article, I would welcome that (as it's something I don't know how to do). RST38h has also proposed helping with an example package using plain Makefiles, which I would also welcome. The idea is to make it as easy as possible to get started, without making everything confusing. > Right. Do you think that's the average developer though?

Please help improve it. But let's not remove all the autotools stuff (which, allow me to repeat, is there because that's how *I* know how to make packages).
