The article in question is empty (Makefile).

    Generally it can be any. Only then make you need to specify the file name through the -f parameter. But so it is accepted that it is not. In general, in Linux file extension does not matter (in 99% of cases). A Makefile.am is the one with the "project" files for a real Makefile. It is used by the automake utility (and therefore am at the end).
