Johannes cmake install package not suitable for Windows builds

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Get latest Johannes
2. Try to build DeVIDE

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Johannes fails when it gets to configuring cmake. It tries to run the
bootstrap script for cmake, which should only be used for *nix builds. On
Windows, a binary release of cmake should be used. It also apparently did
not detect my installed version of cmake (2.6.3, which was on the path).

As a workaround I hacked install_packages/ip_cmake.py to return from each
function immediately when os.name == 'nt'.

Hi Stef,

Thanks for all the bug reports.

In this case, you have caught johannes in a transition phase: On Windows, it 
used to 
rely on python,numpy,matplotlib,wxpython and cmake being on your system, I'm 
currently modifying it to build / download all of these just as is the case on 
Linux.

You could try r3525 (right after the new version of the VTK patch on 5.4.1, but 
hopefully before the more severe windows changes) or the v9-1 branch (but then 
you 
get VTK 5.2.1)

I'm closing this issue, as it will go away all by itself.
