If the project is cross-platform, more so. In fact, even if the third-party libraries are not pre-built but will be built as part of the project you are working on, CMake provides ExternalProject which makes it easy to automatically download (optional) and build those third-parties. I don't know whether qbs is making any progress in regards to find_package or ExternalProject but for us those features have become ESSENTIAL in a build system for any non-toy application. -- Pau Garcia i Quiles http://www.elpauer.org (Due to my workload, I may need 10 days to answer)
