You have to run CMake and generate the native build system on each and
every computer you move your source and CMakeLists.txt to. Your users
will have to install CMake and learn how to use CMakeSetup or CCMake,
which is a pretty trivial learning curve if you've done a good build.
Nice GUI configuration and all of that.
I agree and I should say that it is acceptable if you give your user
a minimal documentation on how to run CMake and build your project.
We have done it for TSP project (https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/tsp)
you may find corresponding CMake usage documentation in paragraph
"2.3 TSP source installation" of the following document:
http://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/tsp/documentations/tsp_programming_tutorial-1.0.pdf
you'll find both screen shots for Windows
and console shots for Unix installation from source using CMake.
We do not have a huge user base but we had few report of failure
using this scheme. Failure usually comes from yet untested platform
(or IDE version).
