+### OS custom cmake files
+
+
+This is meant to personalize the project depending on the OS your are using.
+At the end of config.cmake, common.cmake will include lot of cmake file to
+customize project build depending on your plateform. It will detect your OS
+deducing it from file _/etc/os-release_ now as default in almost all Linux
+distribution.
+
+So you can use the value of field **ID_LIKE** or **ID** if the
+first one doesn't exists and add a cmake file for that distribution in your
+_conf.d/cmake/_ directory or relatively to your _app-templates_ submodule path
+_app-templates/../cmake/_
+
+Those files has to be named use the following scheme _XX-${OSRELEASE}*.cmake_
+where _XX_ are numbers, ${OSRELEASE} the **ID_LIKE** or **ID** field from
+_/etc/os-release_ file. You can also define default OS configuration file
+to use as fallback is none specific OS configuration is available using the
+scheme _XX-default*.cmake_. Then is you need by example a module that isn't
+named the same in one distro only, you only has to define a specific file to
+handle that case then for all the other case put the configuration in the
+default file.
