Hello Vincent,

Hmm, IMO the package does not actually compile latex sources; providing
Makefile snippets (and LaTeX macros for easy inclusion of xfig images)
is a different thing.
Now I guess that xfig images are more special, while the Makefile
will probably be useful to many or most users and could thus be
considered the main service of the package. So I'd suggest a name
expressing its linkage to Makefiles, something like latex-maker.

I'd drop that "complex (and simple)", since it's essentially a no-op,
cluttering the short description. The ability to handle complex input
is detailed in the long description, that's fine.
If you choose to rename the package as I suggested above, it might
be appropriate to adjust the short description accordingly, to something
like "LaTeX Makefile snippets and easy xfig integration".

It's not providing snippets of make(1), the binary, but Makefile snippets.

Drop that space here and in general before colons, as Frank has already
pointed it out.
Just my 2 Cent,
