New audio - What is happening with the Linux Professional Institute (LPI) certification program? Over the weekend I sat down with Matt Rice, LPI's Executive Director. Way back in 1998/99, I was one of the co-founders of LPI, but haven't been involved in 20 years until I was recently inducted into LPI's "Hall of Fellows". Matt visited me in Vermont to give me the physical award, and so I pulled out the microphones to learn more. 🙂

Wie immer gilt: Ohne #opensource geht es nicht mehr. Aber alleine #OSS ist auch nicht genug. Sowohl #VendorLockIn als auch "komische" Konzern-Hintergründe sind auch in OSS möglich. Auch die #OSBA kann ein Lied davon singen, da sind jetzt ja jede Menge #proprietär e Konzerne dabei. Aber die Story von #Lyon und #Onlyoffice ist hart.

If you're writing a library, you should really avoid #CMake. CMake is designed to lock you in. As in, once you release a #FreeSoftware project using CMake, you can't switch to another build system with causing real trouble to your users. And if you support multiple build systems, as soon as you start supporting CMake, some of your users are going to start locking everyone else in.
That's because CMake uses a custom package discovery mechanism that's hardly compatible with anything else, and that is so complex that it's very hard to reimplement it with any other build system. So when others start relying on the CMake config files being installed (and they naturally will, since that's how CMake does things), you can't stop installing them without actually breaking stuff. And if you want to preserve them without actually using CMake, well, good luck with that.
And if CMake is one of the options you support, then some of your consumers will accidentally start relying on it anyway. And this will be much worse for everyone, because now their projects won't work for people who build your project with any other build system. Which in turn will force more projects to use CMake anyway. Which in turn will make more people rely on CMake being used…
Use #Meson as the build system, it's clean and not designed to lock you in. Use pkg-config for library data; it's simple and portable.

@marco @c3voc @FITKOfoederal @kdsz_bayern IMHO könnte man noch ergänzen: These 6: kein Verständnis, was #OpenSource oder #proprietär eigentlich ist (der typische verständnislosen Blick, wenn man versucht, auf nicht-technischer Ebene die Unterschiede zu erklären - vielleicht liegt's aber auch an meinen pädagogischen "Fähigkeiten"...) => #Kompetenzaufbau JETZT! These 7: #Geldköfferchen 😉
