Why would you like to install such "ancient version" of cmake? Unless you have good reason to do so you should install 2.8.x series. 2.8.10.2 being the latest release. > it is showing > > $ Curses libraries were not found.

This question is not cmake-specific, may be you should ask on SLC support channels (forum, mailing list, ...). https://www.scientificlinux.org/community/ -- Erk Le gouvernement représentatif n'est pas la démocratie -- http://www.le-message.org -- Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
