I had to re-install my system and am having build problems.

I'm getting

aga@giga:~/Git/kmymoney/build> make
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:53 (STRING):

It looks like the top level CMakeLists.txt, which has
"
STRING(SUBSTRING ${BRANCH} 0 10 BRANCH)  "

To me, that seems to have four arguments, but then I know nothing.

Any clues, anyone, please? I've a few kmm builds and they all give this error.

Oh, in case my cmake has upgraded, it's at 2.8.6-2.1.2 which doesn't seem that new.

I'm also on 2.8.6 (both Gentoo and Arch) and I see the same line, and have not had any compile issues. First thing to check is to be sure whether the error is generated by make or by cmake itself (I suspect the latter). You could try "ccmake ." while in the build directory, then hitting "c" for configure, then "g" for generate to see if either of those gives the error.

Could there be something funny about the value of BRANCH before that line? If it's empty, that could cause cmake to see only three arguments, although I don't see how it could happen.
