Re: [CMake] libcrypto.so.6 library needed for cmake on Ubuntu 8.04
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.
