A small update here, to build cmake is really straightforward. I got Blender 2.8 to build in 14.04 with no further complications. So if we rule this Ubuntu as an too-old to maintain OS, it's all good, and my original email can just be ignored.
> Switching to CMake 3.x would be nice since (...) Blender 2.8 switched for it already. _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org https://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
