In fact, I started a port but hit some problems with CMake. It's having problems locating the libraries and include files of libical and openldap. Looks like there is nothing set by default for the CMake functions CHECK_INCLUDE_FILE and CHECK_LIBRARY_EXISTS to work. Guess I'll have to try harder! I also have the problem that if I add USE_AUTOTOOLS=libtool:22, as libtool is a depency, it tries to use ./configure instead of CMake. Should I use a direct dependency in LIB_DEPENDS ?
