I can imagine how Martin's recipe looks like and it's probably very ugly and just for your current version. If you add an additional file or rename one then that recipe won't work anymore. If you provide a Makefile then it will look nice and be independent on what you in your programm. That way it's much much easier to maintain for the package maintainer.
