Install emacs and emacs-vterm.
Run emacs and type M-x vterm RET.
A prompt will ask: Vterm needs \vterm-module` to work. Compile it now?`
Respond with yes.
This message will be reported: vterm-module--cmake-is-available: Vterm needs CMake to be compiled. Please, install CMake.

Is this supposed to work this way? I thought maybe the vterm-module will be installed in compiled form.

Hello, No, it's not supposed to work this way! They may have changed the way they build vterm. I will take a look at this!

Thanks.

I also tried to install cmake into my user profile and compiling vterm-module but it resulted in another error.

Ok, it's totally my fault!

It's fixed on master if you want the latest patch.
