After more than 30 years, why is there is no standardized package manager for c/c++ projects to avoid build systems hell.

3. conan

   2 112 8,644 9.8 Python

   Conan - The open-source C and C++ package manager

   

4. premake-core

   3 3 3,361 9.2 C

   Premake

   

   Premake honestly doesn't suck, and is so extendable that you can add vcpkg support to it and finally forget about CMake.

5. conan-center-index

   4 42 1,027 10.0 Python

   Recipes for the ConanCenter repository

   

   It seems that you haven't following up. ConanCenter now has 1400 packages, a bit less than vcpkg, but it got like 9000 PullRequests from the community in last 2 years: https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/pulls.

6. opencv-rust

   5 14 2,151 9.1 Rust

   Rust bindings for OpenCV

   

   For example, this is the build script of the opencv bindings: https://github.com/twistedfall/opencv-rust/blob/master/build.rs

7. xmake

   6 168 10,848 9.9 Lua

   🔥 A cross-platform build utility based on Lua

   

   Maybe you missed xmake, it will be just what you need. https://github.com/xmake-io/xmake
