Ok I managed to use a crude way to overcome this error by disabling the MD5 hash check and manually extracting google test release to the parent directory. It worked!

[anadon]

It failed the md5 check with the same version? That sounds more like that github account was compromised and you installed a malicious program, or google violated best practices in their release versioning. I'll send a message to them asking about it.

[BillyDonahue]

Sorry, what md5sum were you expecting?

[dendisuhubdy]

In verify-gtest-external.cmake the expected MD5 sum is

expect_value "ef5e700c8a0f3ee123e2e0209b8b4961"

the downloaded file was different. I doubt it's on the Google release part, but as I tried to even download it my libcurl can't allow downloading HTTPS which is weird, because I always use CURL to download files over HTTPS.

[dendisuhubdy]

By the way that only happened to me on Ubuntu 14.04 not on Max OS X 10.11

[dcow]

Sounds more like you network or machine is compromised if https is broken.

[anadon]

I have it tested working on my linux system. dendisuhubdy, I think this is your end and this should be closed.

[dendisuhubdy]

agreed. Thanks!

You need to be the one to hit the "comment and close" button -- we can't >_<

Getting to this late; make sure that your cmake version is at least 2.8.12
