How? The commands to build/clean/install the package are already
there, nothing else needs to be added.

If they'd say how a package is built, and why with the specified
paramaters, that would be helpful. However, they don't do that. To
translate them into C-style, here is my reading:

int
main ( void )
{
	/* Add here commands to print "Hello World!" */
	printf ("Hello World!\n");
	return 0;
}

I hope you see my point now.
