Hi all,

I know that was mentioned then, but re-thinking this, as this will all
be Linux specific, I don't really see a need for autotools atm, and as
I personally find autotools a bit overcomplicated. I would like to try
just using plain Makefiles for now. If it turns out this does not work
we can always switch to autotools later.
I suspect it won't work fine. There are some library dependencies at
utils/contrib, like libsysfs and libqt stuff. The build system should or
refuse to compile or disable some of those tools if the dependencies are
missing.
Have a look at cmake: cmake.org . It is extremely powerful in terms of
external-library--detection, it can do QT natively and all other things
around library generation and dependencies.
Cmake has become my favorite build-tool for user-space development.
Just my 2cts.
