Yes, currently we only plan to support build2 as a way to build ODB
(which is not to say that you cannot use other build systems for your
own project that use ODB).

Note also that quite a few (also initially skeptical) users have
successfully integrated a build2-based ODB build into their setup.
The fact that build2 is dependency-free (all you need is a C++
compiler) and can easily be invoked from other build systems makes
this fairly straightforward. So maybe give it a try?
