Actually, as a user I do care and not in favor of CMake because there is always a possibility that Boost requires a newer CMake version that is not available on my platform.
We could embed the required CMake distribution in boost, compile it, and use it to build boost ?
There's the build dependencies of cmake on Ubuntu: libarchive-dev (>= 2.8.0), libbz2-dev, libcurl4-openssl-dev | libcurl-ssl-dev, libexpat1-dev, libjsoncpp-dev, liblzma-dev, libncurses5-dev, libuv1-dev, procps [!hurd-any], python-sphinx, qtbase5-dev , zlib1g-dev (I've omitted the ones obviously required by Debian build scripts.) Are you going to include those as well?
