Description
When enabling the variants for the CMake GUI and/or Docs, that results in a tremendous number of requisite dependencies built/installed first. And at some point, we may have a circular dependency issue, when those are enabled.
Given that CMake is very much a foundational port, it should always have the bare minimum of dependencies. In order to ensure that, let's migrate the GUI and Docs to two separate subports. (Perhaps named cmake-gui
and cmake-docs
.)
@michaelld, I'll do the work, if you support the idea!
