Complaining with autotools is a common thing, and during development they can 
make your life hell!!
qmake is a good choice and has a good kdevelop integration, but there is 
another really interesting solution I would recommend: SCons [www.scons.org]. 
It's a wonderful build system python based, altough not a complete _autohell_ 
substitute [not yet]. It's elegant and SIMPLE.
I was deep into autotools hell months ago as I begun maintaining a big 
project... I have to say SCons really helped me a lot. 
Now I'm using it with KDevlop3 with some hacks (I built fake makefiles).
It would be really nice to integrate it somehow (maybe like Ant) in kdevelop.
When I have some time I will give it a try.... if someone is interested let me 
know.
