LOL, cross-building with cmake is a joke. While core-cmake cross-build functionality is awesome (a toolchain file!), the people writing the FindLibFoo stuff are ignorantly hardcoding /usr/lib, /usr/include and friends. And worse, patches for that are generally land on the bottom of the review pile. And for the record, cross-build toolchains and buidsystems *are* my job and I hate cmake with a passion. Even if all of the above magically gets fixed, having more than 1 buildsystem for a project is a drain on resources and usually ends up with "But it *does* work in my pet system, WONTFIX" type of replies to people who run into issues. regards, Koen _______________________________________________ Pixman mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pixman
