I am sorry to see that you did not inform yourself well enough about cdrtools.
This caused you to ask a useless question that you could avoid if you did
understand the background!
Some hints to you:
If you replace nail A by nail B, it still remains a nail.
If you believe that "the schily makefilesystem" refers to
"scripts used to control compilation", then "cmake" of course
is nothing different.
If you believe that "cmake" is a separate program, then of course
"the schily makefilesystem" is also a separate program.
Now you should _carefully_ read your own text........
You introduced the term "cmake scripts" for your own confusion. If you
understand
_what_ this is in _contrary to "cmake" or "the schily makefilesystem", you
answered your question and you know why Bloch/Debian cannot be taken for
serious.
I recommend you to first inform yourself before asking again....
