Using the autotools on OSRA would need that it dependencies all have
correctly installed headers and libraries, which is not the case. gocr,
potrace and tclap all have serious issues: potrace does not install the
library, gocr installs only one header which includes not installed
headers, tclap needs a config.h, but this is a minor issue. I don't
think it would be easier with cmake.
