Instructions don't pull Ubuntu up to a high enough version of cmake #14

Closed keithzg closed 10 years ago

keithzg commented 10 years ago

The README says to enable ppa:ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa, but that doesn't actually pull in any newer of a cmake version than in the standard Trusty (ie. 14.04) repos. In fact, the upcoming 14.10 release doesn't look like it'll be having a newer version either: http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/cmake

The latest version of cmake packaged with Sid isn't of any help to Ubuntu users, since Sid's cmake-qt-gui package requires libstdc++6 >= 4.9 (although that is coming shortly in 14.10).

Do you have any suggestion how to improve the instruction for Ubuntu? I don't use Ubuntu personally.

Why we need newer cmake?

Rush commented 10 years ago

It's better. Cleaner Qt5 usage, included project version. It's not a problem to have CMake 3.0.0. I understand only Ubuntu is the problem atm but in half a year it will have 3.0.0...

The solution is pretty simple, there is a seperate PPA for exactly this purpose: https://launchpad.net/~packetlost/+archive/ubuntu/cmake . I tested this right now and it works like a charm. Hope this helps ;)

Rush commented 10 years ago

Could you post a full command how to add this ppa?

h4emp3 commented 10 years ago

Of course, the general idea is like for the one you already mentioned in the howto: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:packetlost/cmake

Added to README, I consider this closed. Thanks @h4emp3
