Just to be very clear and to avoid misunderstandings, I'm going to walk you through the steps of installing CMake. Comments will be prefixed by a # sign.
# create a download directory mkdir -p ~/Downloads # change directory to the downloads location cd ~/Downloads # do the actual download (or place the .tar.gz file in ~/Downloads) wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.0.tar.gz # unpack it tar xzf cmake-2.8.0.tar.gz # create a build directory and cd there mkdir cmake-2.8.0-build cd cmake-2.8.0-build # bootstrap cmake (replace the prefix directory) sh ../cmake-2.8.0/bootstrap --prefix=$HOME/software # build and install cmake make make install # make it available (if $PREFIX/bin not in PATH and using bash shell) echo "export PATH=$HOME/software/bin:$PATH" >> ~/bashrc . ~/.bashrc I hope this helps Michael On 10.
