Kodsnack 198 - I'm opposed to magic

This episode is presented in English.

We chat with Diego Rodriguez-Losada about the C and C++ package manager Conan. Where did it come from, where is it going, the philosophy behind it (very, very pragmatic) and how Tobias has put it to use at Plex. We also move on to package managers and build systems in general. Also: the interesting topic of being magical versus not.

Thanks to Cloudnet for sponsoring our VPS!

Titles

I was loooking for alternatives
We decided to try again
The perfect academic solution
Usually it's a bash script
We know what kind of pain they go through
The community won't move
We wanted to be hackable
When I wrote my own dependency system
A beautiful concept you can implement with generators
We all hate the syntax of cmake
Just an abuse of the system
The full devops world has to change
We know how to automate all the parts
A mistake by design
We are betting on that this is going to help us in the long run
We had four build systems
One of the reasons we wanted to switch is that it was horrible
I remember the gnashing of teeth
The pain is bigger than the investment
Being very magical
The magic eventually becomes a pain point
I'm opposed to magic
Freedom to shoot yourself in the foot
The biggest gun to shoot yourself
The domain was available
