I think the manual way is reasonably easy. Or which drawback do you see 
here? If you have set up your environment already with MADDE, the 
optification should not be a reason to install the Platform SDK with 
Scratchbox etc. There is just one bug in MADDE, if you package your 
application that way, you have to set the rights of your binary to 
executable in the postinst file.

I doubt that, but I'm not sure. Will find that out.
