Install dependencies cmake3

Site Feedback

On your site in the dependencies there is cmake3 package, is this just a typo?

Required packages

…

  • make: for /usr/bin/make
  • cmake3: for /usr/bin/cmake3

…

It is also in one-liner

sudo yum install git cmake3 gcc-c++ gcc binutils \
libX11-devel libXpm-devel libXft-devel libXext-devel openssl-devel

cheers,

It looks like a mistake .
May be @eguiraud can confirm ?
I guess cmake3 should be changed to cmake

On CentOS the package with the most recent cmake is really called cmake3 if I’m not mistaken?

EDIT: e.g. try running yum search cmake3 on lxplus

Ah ok. I did not know. On (my) MacOS cmake3 is not found.

I have Centos 8

My $ cat /etc/os-release gives:

NAME="CentOS Stream"
VERSION="8"
ID="centos"
ID_LIKE="rhel fedora"
VERSION_ID="8"
PLATFORM_ID="platform:el8"
PRETTY_NAME="CentOS Stream 8"
ANSI_COLOR="0;31"
CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:centos:centos:8"
HOME_URL="https://centos.org/"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/"
REDHAT_SUPPORT_PRODUCT="Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8"
REDHAT_SUPPORT_PRODUCT_VERSION="CentOS Stream"

And there is no cmake3 found.

$ yum search cmake3

No matches found.

Also different topic, but I can’t find “r-base” what is meant by that?

Alright, so in CentOS 7 (e.g. on lxplus) it’s called cmake3 and in CentOS 8 they finally bumped the default cmake major version to 3 so it’s just called cmake. Please open an issue on https://github.com/root-project/web/issues , and thanks for reporting this!

I guess it’s R, the programming language
