cmake has now released 2.4.3 of their tool… I’ve bumped my ebuild as appropriate.

Meanwhile, don’t forget you can get the bleeding-edge cvs release of cmake using my cmake-cvs.0.ebuild.

As always, get this and all my other ebuilds for cmake into your local portage tree by doing:

# rsync -rztp --delete rsync://rsync.omz13.com/local-portage/dev-util/cmake /usr/local/portage/dev-util

I’ve been playing around a lot with cmake, working on a build chain that incorporates automagic header generation (using makeheaders), linting, and other wonderul things.

I’ve been using cmake for years now (since the 1.x release!) and it looks as if its going mainstream. Its been adopted by KDE and Alexander Neundorf’s article makes great reading; Scribus is also using it. BTW, why is it that people are so slow to move away from autoconf/automake… are people really that conservative and afraid to learn or even consider another tool?

Meanwhile… since the cvs version of cmake is always more up-to-date than the official release, I’ve hacked together an ebuild to grab the HEAD from the cmake cvs repository.
