Re: [R-pkg-devel] Would CRAN accept a package that requires cmake?
qtbase - https://cran.rstudio.com/web/packages/qtbase/index.html - is just one (quickly found) example of pkgs using cmake. the installr pkg will enable folks to install cmake on windows pretty easily, as well.

Dirk Judging from this email from Uwe Ligges, CRAN is indeed open to using cmake to compile a package: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-package-devel/2016q2/000903.html Appears you have to ask him to install the relevant version though.

[R-pkg-devel] Would CRAN accept a package that requires cmake?
Greetings, I have seen this previous discussion ( https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-package-devel/2015q2/000115.html) on this question but I didn't find a clear answer. I am looking at integrating some more existing open-source C++ libraries to R packages. However, a handful use/require cmake for compilation. I believe this is possible to do using the configure(.win) files but I want to make sure this would be acceptable to CRAN.
