However, it's obvious that you're both passionate about these... so
I will relent and agree that whatever build system we come up with
has to have these features. Fine.
Thanks.
Can you agree with me that the current build system adds friction
for everyone that doesn't use these features?
Yup. I think adding new files is the worst-case scenario, but there's
flaws (actually, "friction" is the perfect word) in every case.
I think you guys are so used to how slow and laborious it is that
you don't even realize how much better it could be.
No, I remember pre-automake libMesh too, and it was certainly better
in some ways, just much worse in some others. I still think the move
to automake was an improvement but we're definitely not at an optimum.
