Description
faust-devel fails to build with:
/bin/sh: cmake: command not found
It's missing a dependency on cmake. But it looks like we're running make, which is running cmake. Is this indirection necessary? Could we run cmake directly? MacPorts has the cmake 1.1 portgroup which is designed to run cmake with the options we generally want to use. Could we switch the port over to that?
I didn't check if the other faust-related ports need something similar.

Replying to agraef:
Could we run cmake directly?
It's probably possible, but very complicated and it would also be a maintenance nightmare, because bypassing the main Makefile we basically have to replicate everything in there, and that file still keeps changing.
Yes, I see now, it's a very large Makefile. I agree we don't want to reimplement that.
On the other hand, there is a lot of stuff in the cmake 1.1 portgroup that, by not using it, this port may not be doing. For example, the cmake portgroup arranges for silent rules to be disabled, so that we can see the exact compile commands being issued; this port isn't doing that, so the rules are silent, so I can't see the compile lines, so I don't know if they include everything we want them to include.

That's easy, we just need to add VERBOSE=1 to the make options.

Yes, sorry I missed that. Will fix asap.
Yes, Faust's build system has recently been reworked. But the main Makefile is still the entry point.
