We have a completely set up dependency chain.
We can change anything we want in our code.
CDash currently tries to take care of everything, beginning from
fetching the sources up to running the unittests. We already have this
code, we would have to either find a way to translate everything into
CDash or rewrite it (this would be a lot of work). This seems to be less
flexible for us, as with the currently solution we can use the same code
for both automatic building of packages, as for building packages on
each computer for each developer.
