A comment on Autotools Mythbuster.

I confess that I don't even know how to write a makefile, but reading the comments here, should I understand that cmake is better than autotools? Or should I learn autotools instead of cmake?

Since cmake is more adopted, isn't cmake better ?

If you have a need for this kind of thing, learn cmake. If you don't have a need for this kind of thing, consider yourself lucky.
