_ROOT Version: 6.14.02
_Platform: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
_Compiler: gcc 7.3.0
I am attempting to install ROOT from source on Ubuntu using the following commands:
cmake /path/to/src
cmake --build .
The second command fails with the following error:
CMake Error at /home/name/root/VDT-prefix/src/VDT-stamp/VDT-configure-RelWithDebInfo.cmake:16 (message):

I find two files that fit the reference:

These are VDT-configure-err.log, which contains:
