> The tough truth is that there already is a cargo for C/C++: Conan2

Is it though?

When I read the tutorial: https://docs.conan.io/2/tutorial/consuming_packages/build_si...

It says to hand write a `CMakeLists.txt` file. This is before it has me create a `conanfile.txt` even.

I have the same complaint about vcpkg.

It seems like it takes: `(conan | vcpkg) + (cmake | autotools) + (ninja | make)` to do the basics what cargo does.
