Ccmake ver is different than cmake

Usage
#1

I just upgraded from 3.10 on ubuntu 18.04 to 3.20. Is there a matching version of ccmake or a gui?
Am I supposed to use the ccmake ver 3.10 with cmake 3.20?

Thanks

#2

Hmm. Seems that the ccmake package didn’t get updated? What versions of cmake, cmake-curses-gui and cmake-qt-gui do you have installed?

#3

I had cmake ccmake 3.10, updated from souce to cmake 3.20, did not have cmake-qt-gui
Ran the bootstrap script, then make -j7, then sudo make install, the cmake 3.20 is working. Ccmake shows 3.10 when running.
Tried uninstalling all, re installing with same procedure, cmake works, now no ccmake.
Is ccmake something that comes with cmake?

#4

It does come with CMake, but only if enabled. You may not have either turned it on or were missing the required libcurses-dev package which provides the headers that it needs.

Any ideas?

#6

I see lots of libncurse stuff, will that work?

The libncurses5-dev install and rebuild install did it thank you. Would be nice if the instructions text file mentioned that.

#9

I’ve opened an issue. Note that for Debian and Ubuntu, we do provide up-to-date packages at https://apt.kitware.com/

#10

Ok thanks
