LZO was used before the first version we track in our version
control system, which dates back to Aug 2004. Somewhere before
that time a few savegames / scenarios exist which use LZO. No
other savegame / scenario does since then. Let's not encourage
people to install something that ancient.
There are no scenarios on BaNaNaS that require LZO.
CPack works closely together with CMake to do the right thing in
terms of bundling (called 'package'). This generates all the
packaging we need, and some more.
CMake works on all our supported platforms, like MSVC, Mingw, GCC,
Clang, and many more. It allows for a single way of doing things,
so no longer we need shell scripts and vbs scripts to work on all
our supported platforms.
Additionally, CMake allows to generate project files for like MSVC,
KDevelop, etc.
This heavily reduces the lines of code we need to support multiple
platforms from a project perspective.
Addtiionally, this heavily improves our detection of libraries, etc.
