Building packages for IPFire 3.x

Hello *,

sorry for being so quiet during the last weeks.

Updating packages and provide some system hardening (kernel, SSH, et al.)
for IPFire 3.x is on my todo list for a long time now. While searching for
further information about how to build packages for this distribution,
I came across https://wiki.ipfire.org/devel/build_package/start .

As far as I understood, an instance of IPFire 3.x is needed to build
packages on it; there is no other way documented. Is this correct? What
happened to https://pakfire.ipfire.org/ ?

Further, the *.nm files seem to be somewhat tricky. A quick lookup in the
wiki did not show up any noob documentation. In case the is one available
(man page, etc.), how do I find it?

Thanks, and best regards,
Peter Müller
