Raymond, the web page explains how to build from sources.
That is the 3rd way of installing CMake.

1. apt-get install cmake
2. Bash installer or manually unpacking .tar.gz. eg.
cmake-3.12.3-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz

wget -O cmake-linux.sh
https://cmake.org/files/v3.12/cmake-3.12.3-Linux-x86_64.sh
sudo sh cmake-linux.sh -- --skip-license --prefix=/usr/local

3. Build from sources as per https://cmake.org/install/

I can assure you the option 2. works perfectly

I use it daily to juggle CMake on number of Linux environments
