Sometime in the next 30 years? Extremely likely. Before the following release? Something would have to cross a really high bar to change again right on the heels of a change... For me, I don't see it. The landscape of build systems isn't much different than it was ~3 years ago when the cmake build was implemented, so the analysis isn't much different. The biggest change I've seen is meson coming out a bit (there's some push to move some parts of X.org over, frex). But that calls for python 3 and only does ninja, so that's even further out than cmake in a lot of ways. 'course, if you really just want ./configure, that's easy :) === added file 'configure' --- configure 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 +++ configure 2017-05-13 23:10:13 +0000 @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +#!/bin/sh +exec make cmake -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | [email protected] Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream.
