  I hate autotools, but I have stockholm syndrome so I still use it.

    I hated auto tools until I had to use cmake. Now, I still hate auto tools, but I hate cmake more.

  CMake is not a package management tool, it is a build tool. It can be abused to do package management, but that isn't what it is for.
