            Bug ID: 49773
           Summary: Replace autotools with CMake.
           Product: Wine
           Version: 5.16
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: build-env
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: kolan_n at mail.ru
      Distribution: ---

Autotools is a major inconvenience when building wine. It is too slow to
configure (bash-based), too inconvenient to install on Windows (I haven't found
any official prebuilt packages, and building autotools itself requires ...
perl, which itself is a problem to build, (and using proprietary bundles lioe
ActivePerl is completely not an option) ) and too awful to customize.

It is proposed to replace it with CMake.
