Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Surveying interest regarding CMake
From: friendlyanon_@hotmail.com (=?UTF-8?B?SG9ydsOhdGggVi4=?=)

One thing I forgot to ask is what minimum CMake version should php-src
support in its build scripts? For reference, please take a look at
repology.org for the packaging status of CMake across a lot of software
distributions: https://repology.org/project/cmake/badges

Please note that the lower you go, the less convenience you will be
afforded and the more workarounds you will have to implement to have
that convenience.

Personally, I posit that targeting 3.8 would still allow vast majority
of people to depend on nothing but their system package manager, however
I must note that upgrading CMake is trivial and I recommend anyone
wanting to verify that to read Alex Reinking's blog post about this:
