Hello Piotras,

I am the author of dh-make.  The short answer is yes, you will have to 
make these files.  dh-make does a lot but it is impossible to
programmatically work out what files should go where.

However if there is a good rule of thumb that can be applied to a 
majority of cases, then I'm willing to put a patch in dh-make.

You only have to make that file once per package BTW.
