Well, unfortunately we disagree on everything. cmake is NOT sane though
I could write an equivalent in few minutes, read the book, been there,
done that.. it sucks.
Autotools does not require two dozen versions installed to build
anything, this is a apparently an insanity found only in debian
distributions.
Looks like I am going to stop wasting keystrokes about now..people who
have similar opinions invariably do not understand the problems faced by
distributors or packagers.
