Nofib had a shake based benchmark harness that replaced the make one for
some time now.
With people stopping to use the make based one it eventually bit rotted.
I've been doing some refactors to fix one thing or another this week.
And it's clear that the way nofibs make system currently handles package
dependencies
(silently expecting them to be available) is depending on your pov
either completely broken or just really terrible UX. And fixing this
would be non-trivial.
Given the classic "make boot && make" hasn't worked for years now. So I
plan to delete the make build system from it completely.
If anyone has reasons against this do let me now. But unless someone is
at least stepping up to fix it's handling of package dependencies I plan
to follow through on it's deletion
in the near future.
Cheers
Andreas
