Yes, that's also what I want to do, but I don't know how to make it correctly. I tried to google for how to do this in cmake but did not find a good doc for it. > * do out of source builds where possible.

We, however, also have several automake-based projects which requires in source build. Or do you know how to do out of source builds for automake-based projects? > * add a CMakeLists.txt to you main git repo to at least be able to just run > cmake once for all the cmake based sub-modules Yes, I tried it but failed. Some components require that other core libs to be installed first, such as libqtxdg and liblxqt. I don't know how to use cmake to install them locally without root permission. Besides, if I install them locally by settings prefix, how can I install them correctly to the system when using make install? Besides, since we have automake-based projects, I tried cmake the external project command. However, it did not work as well as advertised and had some limitations. > * have a look at kdesrc-build [1] (perl script) that is wonderful for having > dependency based builds from source code OK, I will try, but I cannot read perl. lol Thank you for the suggestions. > Cheers > Martin > > [1] http://kdesrc-build.kde.org/ > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > October Webinars: Code for Performance > Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance. > Explore tips for MPI, OpenMP, advanced profiling, and more.
