But I still think that if we can remediate main cmake, perhaps just addding a 'cmake-full' metapackage that wraps cmake and curl, it could be enough with far less change.
As there seems to be a reasonable amount of disagreement, or at least lack of consensus, on how to proceed, I've changed tack and am instead working on a "cmake-bundled" PKG_OPTION for it which will avoid external dependencies, and folks like me can just enable this option.
I think that's probably the simplest path forward here. Maybe one day we could go all fancy and have some detection for other PKG_OPTIONS being enabled and automatically enable it when it will cause circular dependencies.
