I use it all the time for building production versions of lazarus programs and prior to packaging the programs and resources in .deb and .rpm files.

Apparently there is fpmake and fpcmake, which I didn't know.

I guess what you're saying is that I start with fpcmake and get makefiles which I can then use to do packing and all the stuff I need? I've thought of using makefiles before but I ran into the problem of have all this logic that I need to duplicate for each project. What I'm really after is something more like lazbuild that takes a config file and does all the commands for you. I guess I could even use lazbuild but again, the packaging doesn't seem possible since lazbuild is so Lazarus focused (obviously).
