Thank you! If no one opposes I'll commit the patch on Thursday and
then start converting the remaining libs.
It sounds like the change is significant.
if so, I suggest we consider if we should wait until after 1.10 is released
to make the change.
It is significant in a way, but I think it would be better to have it in 1.10.
It is the last change needed for CMake build system to make it good enough to
generate official Debian packages.
I got several requests to ship the Qt GUI in Debian and with CMake I
can generate both
GTK and Qt GUIs nicely not to mention that CMake builds are faster.
1.10.0 would be a perfect candidate to release a fully operational
CMake build system
for Linux and after 1.10 we could make CMake work on every platform.
Another thing that is missing in CMake is the ability to (re)generate
the ASN.1 dissectors. Currently you need to use autofoo or Windows to do
that.
(I tried looking at it once a long time ago but didn't spend the time to
learn CMake sufficiently...)
