CMake is definitely not as widely used as gmake and bash, so I'm
against making it a prerequisite for Sage. In the history of the Sage
project, the only prerequisite that was ever added was gfortran, and
that is really part of GCC (Gnu Compiler Collection), so fairly
standard.

Anyway, as mentioned before, according to this thread:

   
http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel/browse_thread/thread/e91a204a2902afd/ccbdaa4792872282?lnk=gst&q=Heads+up#ccbdaa4792872282

singular is migrating to CMake.  If that really happens, Sage will
have to include CMake, whether we want to or not.
