Hello I am trying to install CMake (version 2.6.4) prior to the installation of Geant4 in my system (Scientific linux cern 5.3). As I give the command
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/geant4/geant4.9.5-install /home/geant4/geant4.9.5/cmake-2.6.4 it is showing $ Curses libraries were not found. Curses GUI for CMake will not be built. -- Configuring done -- Generating done -- Build files have been written to: /home/geant4/geant4.9.5/cmake-2.6.4 Any suggestion to solve this problem would be appreciative. Thanks in advance. Prasun Sarkar In reply It looks like you do not have the Curses headers/libraries installed on the system. However, it is reporting that configuration/generation was successful, so you should be able to build CMake fine, just that you won't get the ccmake Curses interface. If you do want ccmake , then you'll need to install the relevant packages - on SLC, I think these are rpms ncurses and ncurses-devel . You could also try using the Linux binary distributed by Kitware ( http://cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html) . Hope that helps, though note that we can't in general provide support for installing CMake itself. If you have further questions on this, I would direct them to the relevant CMake mailing list ( http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/mailing.html) . Cheers, Ben. Hello I tried to install the ncurses-devel. I searched for the Scientific Linux Cern (SLC) version 5.3 at http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=ncurses-devel but could not find that version. I have already used the linux binary distributed by kitware for cmake version 2.6.4. ( http://cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html ) Any additional comments to install the "Curses libraries" would be appreciated. Thanking you in advance. Prasun Sarkar
