Description : The pmk project aims to be an alternative to GNU/autoconf (configure scripts).
First a quote from the about page for the project:
Our primary goals are :
* Avoid the use of scripts in packages that can hide trojans.
* Try to keep the needed dependancies near from zero (actually we're at
zero).
* Make it easy to use for users and developpers.
* Provide the package in a free and usable license for everybody (BSD).
Their goals seem to be met so far. The whole thing is written in C, doesn't
depend on perl/m4/shell etc., it's rather easy to use featuring a simple
config file format, autoconf compatibility (output-wise), is supported on
quite a few software platforms (including Debian). The system defaults are
configured in a global config file which makes the usage pretty consistent
accross all the installations.
