I think depends on the project, no? You first specify your dependencies, then provide a way to use the dependencies to build the end project.

If you don't have to specify the dependencies or the build process to the user, then you can get away with the build process not being well defined. Docker is a win for 'easy installation', but I wonder if it degrades the quality of projects which rely on it?
