Not a hard job. Dependencies can be a pain. You can also try pkgsrc which is NetBSD's answer for cross platform OS agnostic package building. You can find all the configuration flags of an application in the corresponding pkgsrc makefiles. I have personally used it in various Linux distros, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD and DragonflyBSD at various times mainly to benchmark stuff.
