Hi, I have downloaded cmake binaries from cmake website. As I had to keep cmake binaries for different platforms in specific folder as per my build system requirements, I have renamed the 'bin' folder to for eg. lin, win, mac etc. This seems to work fine till cmake version 3.7. From this version onwards, I get the following error while invoking cmake after renaming the bin folder.
*$pwd* */home/neo/cmake/cmake-3.10.2-Linux-x86_64/lin86* *$ * *$./cmake --version* *CMake Error: Could not find CMAKE_ROOT !!!* *CMake has most likely not been installed correctly.* *Modules directory not found in* *cmake version 3.10.2* *CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake <http://kitware.com/cmake>).* If I am renaming back to bin directory, there is no issues observed. I have observed that, from version 3.7 onwards cmake has a new configure flag introduced to specify bin directory name, *--bindir=DIR*. So now if I want to use any other name for 'bin' dir, I need to configure and build the cmake while specifiying the bin directory name I need. Is there a way by using any environment variable or something I can modify the bin directory name of the downloaded cmake binary from cmake website and use it without the above mentioned error ?
