CMake vs autoconf

Hi all,

I'm now trying out Razor-qt, essentially KDE-lite.  It's okay.  Kind of
old FVWM with KDE icons and fonts.  Anyways, Razor-qt is configured by
    cmake .
instead of the more usual
    ./configure
After that, you do
    make; make install
but, looking at the Makefile, it's just frontend to "cmake".

For user, I guess it doesn't matter whether it's CMake or autoconf.
But, if anyone is writing build scripts, is it really easier?
