Hi. OSes usually include all CA certificates (even expired). Windows also does it (I have CA expired in 1999 in win10). User should have the ability to distinguish between invalid signatures and old/expired signatures. While the latter is an expected situation, the former is definitely fraud.

Just a few observations: 1) Both ninja and Unix Makefiles works if I use cmake on the command-line 2) Kdevelop successfully compiles the project if I use Unix Makefiles for cmake in stead of Ninja. So the problem seems related with Ninja. However, it would still be interesting to understan
