用于编译多个GNU Autotools项目的构建系统

Question

I'm looking for a process to build multiple GNU autotools based projects that are all located in separate source control.

I'm looking for a build framework that I can supply something along the lines of. Main things I want to specify are repo src (eg. git,hg...), depends.

{
  repos : [
     { src : "git://someplace.com/repo1",
       branch : "devel",
       depends : []
     },
     { src : "git://someplace.com/repo2",
       branch : "default" 
       depends : ["repo1"]
     }
  ] 
}

Does anyone know with something like that exists? I've used bitbake/openembedded and yocto in past for different embedded projects but I think they are way overkill for what i'm looking for.

Answer 1

I've used Test::AutoBuild in the past. According to their feature list they support dependencies, but I haven't tried them.
