I don't know how to build the component without a Makefile(.fpc). Would

The way to compile Lazarus package is either to use Lazarus GUI, or
(from command-line) just call the "lazbuild xxx.lpk". This will call

That being said, simply providing sources for these packages, and
making sure they compile "out of the box" with the current Lazarus +
FPC in Debian, would be probably enough for practical uses. You can
test it e.g. by compiling Castle Game Engine package in
"packages/castle_components.lpk" -- it has the "LazOpenGLContext"
package in it's dependencies. If it compiles OK, you should be able to
compile any LCL-based example in the engine, like
"examples/lazarus/model_3d_viewer/model_3d_viewer.lpi".
All these files (applications and packages, *.lpi and *.lpk) can be
either compiled from GUI, or using the "lazbuild" from command-line.
