TODO: create script for automatic generation of all the packages (below)

Steps:

configure (use --prefix=...?)
make dist: generates source package
make install (use DESTDIR=...?): build tree
cut the tree into separate packages according to the following:

minimal binary (/bin/Singular, ..., including a dummy heml-index?): required for the rest of packages
devel (/lib/, /include/)
emacs (ESingular, .emacs*, ...)
shared (LIB/*.lib, help-index) - this one should be widely advertised as requires minimal binary and thus satisfies most of anybody's needs

optionally: if additional tools for generation are present, generate the following package:

doc (generated manual) - html manual pages + help index + ...?

ps: note that shared needs help-index from doc

TODO: fix naming schemata for all the packages
