one point to consider is that cmake does not have any run-time
dependencies and it is extremely easy to install independently from the
OS: the binaries provided by kitware are fully self-contained and can be
installed in parallel to system-provided cmake.
Installing binaries compiled by someone other than the Linux distribution (and
thus signed by their repository key) is a non-starter.
the binaries provided by kitware are signed by the same key that's used
to sign cmake's sources (compare the "Summary files" section on
https://cmake.org/download/).
that said, iirc cmake is dependency-free and can be built with a one-liner
