Hahaha… Do you have any SERIOUS suggestion on how to bring the deficiencies
of the autotools to the attention of upstream maintainers? Of course
spamming them won't cut it.
What's wrong with what I suggested? If you truly believe that cmake is so
much better, I'm sure that everyone would be glad to hear it. Go ahead,
state your case. I'm the upstream for two packages in Fedora. Make your
case. You can start with me.
