There was never a question as to the capability of autotools or cmake
tools, but rather the FreeDV/codec2 implementation. Right now the freedv
autotools configuration is broken for many or incomplete, whichever way you
want to look at it. I don't know autotools well enough to fix it so I
developed the cmake config since that's what I'm comfortable with.
I know other projects try to maintain multiple build systems
(autotools/scons/cmake, etc.) and personally I don't have a problem with
that, but no one has stepped up fix the autotools build in it's current
implementation or support it on a continuing basis. That being the case if
I were leading the project, which I'm not, I would make the same decision
Bruce did.
Thanks,
Richard
