I think you meant to say ..  "Yes, the real problem is ....."

We all do it.

It's not just autotools.  That's just one example.  It's one that is
especially frustrating, and why gnucap uses a simple script and modular
makefiles rather than any of the big configuration systems.  There are
branches in git that use autotools and cmake, but they don't work right
so they stay as branches.  I did look at others.

I think the best so far is that simple script and modular makefiles
that gnucap uses, but it is incomplete.


Judging a system without taking a look ....  Verilog netlists,
including layout and schematic metadata.  ....  Right here, people
judge without taking a look.
