I also need "make install" and "make package" to run. How can I force my
build-products-done target to depend on installation and packaging? Or

I don't think I need this. I only need "make package" to run once; then
I can simply consume the results of packaging -- the
myproject.[tar.gz|.zip|.exe] files.
