CMake: A Powerful Software Build System

System cmake version¶

All Debian workstations will have the same default cmake version shipped by the operating system. Use cmake --version to get the currently active version.

Other cmake versions¶

We manage a central installation with a selection of cmake versions in our /opt/software/ NFS mount available on all managed Linux workstations.

In order to use it, source the corresponding environment variables depending on your required version (X.Y.Z):

source /opt/software/cmake/env/X[.Y[.Z]]

This will setup your environment variables to point to the specific cmake binary and tools.

To check the currently loaded cmake version you can use:

cmake --version

Version missing¶

We are ready to install other cmake versions on request. Please contact us in that case.
