444,cmake shouldn't define UNIx variable,pulkomandy,,"It is well known that Haiku isn't unix.

http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/CMake_Useful_Variables#System_.26_Compiler_Information
This page tells that UNIX variable is set on 'Unix-like' systems. It is, for example, set on Mac OS X and cygwin, but not MSYS, which is as unixish as Haiku, with a bash shell and most of the GNU tools.

When UNIX is set, apps built using cmake are expecting an X11 server, and FHS file hierarchy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard), both of them are not available in Haiku.

So, cmake shouldn't set the UNIX variable, and apps should rely on the HAIKU variable to get their configuration. This way, installing files in the right path at compile time (/boot/common/ instead of /usr/local) would become much easier.",defect,closed,normal,,dev-util/cmake,,normal,wontfix,,pulkomandy@…
