    Even bigger problem is that it's riddled with hardcoded paths, redundant copies of files, disregarding recommended usage notes of its 3rd party libraries.. basically it contains every DevOps related anti-pattern you can think of.

    There seems to be just one maintainer dealing with build related things and he is of a very different opinion what is anti-pattern or just don't want absolutely anybody to touch his code into which he poured his hours.
