I just checked Ubuntu and it turns out they have been very slow to move to CMake-3 for some reason so neither 14.04 LTS (a.k.a Trusty Tahr) nor 14.10 (a.k.a Utopic Unicorn) includes CMake-3. The pre-release 15.04 (a.k.a. Vivid Vervet which is scheduled for final release a week from today) does include CMake-3.0.2 so the Ubuntu users here will have to either be careful to use Vivid or else build or epa_build cmake-3.0.2 or later themselves. In any case in a few months time when we release again from master tip, we should be able to claim that both the latest stable version of Debian and Ubuntu do include cmake-3.0.2. Furthermore most Debian and Ubuntu users will have updated to those versions by that time. So I don't think this cmake version requirement will be a burden for most of the Debian and Ubuntu users of our next release. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
