Installation process, how to create a proper make file using some external tool?

I have to "release" some C++ code. Basically this code needs to be compiled a C++11 compiler and some external library (specifically the gmp,gsl,mpfr libraries).

So basically the makefile to be used has to be properly configured before to be used (because the actual structure depends on where the compiler is installed and where the other libraries are).

Is there a way to "preconfigure" the makefile before use the makefile with the make command?
