CMake vs. autotools on Linux?

 

Hi guys,

I noticed that MariaDB is built (indirectly) with CMake on Windows,
and with autotools on Linux.

Why are both systems used?  I would have assumed that because CMake is
pretty good at generating Makefiles on Linux and OS X, there would be
little reason to continue using autotools.

Thanks,
Christian
