Mindustry dev has had enough
side note, it’s badass to see a gpl3 licensed game on steam, and a paid one at that!
It’s a great game too, I used to play the mobile port, it’s absolutely worth 10€.

Maven and Cradle might be terrible, but C and C++ have fucking nothing in terms of dependency management. Even C# has something that few people use, but it has something. C and C++ are such a shit show to build. It’s so bad they had to invent languages to build them and they regularly fuck up (CMake, make, bison, scons, meson, …).
Pull a C or C++ project on a distro or environment and try to build it and you have to dive in the abyss of undeclared dependencies. And good fucking luck with glibc and glib dependencies. If the dev doesn’t know which version they were actually using, it’s up to you to find out. Fun for the entire family!
To be fair, C predates dependency hell. It was either there or it wasn’t. C++ has less of an excuse, but it was just object oriented concepts taped to C so it’s no surprise it was also missing dependency management.
Now with cmake, gnu-make, meson, gradel, and the world of metabuild systems that wrap those, nothing will change. It it does, it might as well kick start world war 3.
come develop Golang , its good here.
… and other ridiculous cope statements to laugh about
I am in this post and I don’t like it.
Thank God it’s not just me
I’ll take the autotools over Gradle, that’s how much it sucks.
Haha this.
There’s Gradle to crave joke to make here, but deploy keeps failing during dependency checks for humor.
Me with gh’s CI
