Not really. Already hosted packages like Boost, Zlib, OpenSSL, ZMQ, Protobuf are packaged and hosted without changing a single line of their respective build, and with just a single conanfile.py to define the packaging. The build systems of

> That's backwards. A SerialPort library would depend on Asio since it defines sync and async streams and the utilities built around that. It seems bad design for a SerialPort library to reimplement those basic utilities. IMO, the f

I partly disagree. Depending on boost, as-is, is still a problem from the point of view of engineering, and the example in the post is relevant. It shouldnt be necessary to retrieve hundreds of megabytes for implementing some serial-port fu
