I couldn't see anything on the CMake site that looked like an installable package, so ...
Following a search, I downloaded an RPM file and installed that with Alien. Evidently that package was built from a different tree (or something - I'm not an expert at this type of thing). The problem is solved - I subsequently removed that package and successfully installed a Debian package (cmake 2.8.4), although I first had to resolve a lot of dependencies. Thanks for your help, Eric.

Which version of CMake did you install ? Where did obtain cmake (Ubuntu repo or www.cmake.org?) > Please advise where to find the required library. Looks like an inappropriate package problem. Could you try to re-install cmake using sudo aptitude reinstall cmake ? -- Erk Membre de l'April - « promouvoir et défendre le logiciel libre » - http://www.april.org _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
