[SailfishDevel] Starting point for building packages

[Tobias Brunner]

Hi,

I'm new to the SailfishOS SDK. I'd like to build the ownCloud client for 
SailfishOS and create a RPM package for easy installation at the Jolla. 
The documentation on how to build the ownCloud sync client is here: 
http://doc.owncloud.org/desktop/1.5/building.html

But now I'm looking for a hint on how to build software for SailfisOS. 
The SDK is up and running, and now? The howto's are all about how to 
create a new software, but not about how to build and package an 
existing one.
I know how to build software on linux: ./configure; make; make install. 
(And resolve needed dependencies). How can this three commands be mapped 
to the SailfishOS world?

Thanks for any hints on getting started.

Cheers,
Tobias
