As I mentioned on the list today, we have a major problem already. Trinity 3.5.12 with Automake just plain *will* *not* *build* on modern systems, so we are losing a lot of potential help for the bugs every day that CMake is unfinished. Very few people will purposefully downgrade (and break) their entire build system just to fix a Trinity bug or two. Also we cannot release something that is known not to build on 90% of current Linux distributions. The problem was far more pervasive than I originally thought, so I had no choice but to block on CMake and bump its priority to critical.
It's unpleasant I know, but I don't see any other way to do this.
But KDE 3.5.10 builds well for OpenSUSE 11.4. Is that automake issue only Trinity-specific?
