Cmake is just as bad as autotools, just with a different syntax and more =
"buzz" behind it right this second. I don't see any advantage to it over =
autotools unless you're not familiar with either and even then I =
wouldn't really call it an advantage. It's just different.
It also requires a dependency that isn't installed by default anywhere, =
as already mentioned, and is less known outside of some obscure qt/kde =
circles and so finding people who are familiar with it and are willing =
to maintain it is more difficult.=20
Autotools is the devil you know.
You'll probably throw out that mysql and compiz have switched to it, but =
really, those projects aren't something that should be emulated by =
anyone. Ever.
