Well, it may look dirty, but it's the regular way to start a new port.
I've done the very things two years ago with the powerpc port that I'm
doing now with the mipsel port.  However, there are less problems, but
new problems on other stages.

libtool is not from tetex but from gnu - and it's said to be broken...

Anyway, a pure dpkg.deb will take a while, too many tools are involved.
