That's exactly why I think autoconf cannot be dropped (there is always a platform where auto* is required, I remember the time when I wanted to drop it in libgd, bad idea :) ). CMake can live in parallel without having any impact on the auto* script, there is then no issue (almost ;). Cheers, -- Pierre http://blog.thepimp.net | http://www.libgd.org
