https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D258362 Daniel Engberg <diizzy@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |diizzy@FreeBSD.org --- Comment #6 from Daniel Engberg <diizzy@FreeBSD.org> --- It's much easier to maintain, debug and in many cases also improves build t= ime quite dramatically especially when you have many cores like ARM. What you a= lso see is that many projects (especially audio/video/desktop related ones) are moving away from GNU Autotools to already mentioned CMake or Meson and in c= ase of CMake an additional benefit are the cmake files in lib/cmake that aren't available using Autotools. I recognize that it can be perceived as a "downgrade" if you're looking at single port in terms of build time but past that there are a lot of benefits and usually more consistent than Autotools (less hacks/patching in Makefile= ). Additionally since many users (ports) will pull in CMake anyway it's not an issue if you look at the bigger picture. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
