Yup, a coworker was wondering why a build failed, a minute later I saw this.

Well, it's not like we have invented binary and source packages two decades ago, so people don't need to re-download and re-build their build-time dependencies every time they start compilation.

Oh wait, we have.

Yep, but nobody ever includes them. Nice stuff to automate, gotta chek if there is already DevOpsy stuff to fix that, and if there isn't, got me a new weekend project...

It is obviously gonna be hosted on GitHub. Oh, the irony...
