What was the cause? Are there any solutions?

It seems like it is probably a WSL2 problem. Can you pull other images?

@ [Ben Boeckel](https://discourse.cmake.org/u/ben.boeckel) thx for rep. maybe this image doesn’t support windows wsl? i will also try [fedora-image](https://hub.docker.com/layers/kitware/cmake/ci-fedora35-x86_64-2022-02-21/images/sha256-c71c559f81b92be645a9314acfd24c1e46e1d75db95c868cf86c8ca719a11537?context=explore), but it maybe good to `apt-install cmake` in any os image…

this was good advise. fedora image could run.

```auto
>docker run --rm -it kitware/cmake:ci-fedora35-x86_64-2022-02-21
[root@7d05a7c61def /]# cmake /V
cmake version 3.22.2

CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake).

```

however, I don’t know diff from them.

while `docker pull` debian-image on cmd with Administrator privileges, it was also success.

but strangely `cmake` doesn’t exist…??

```auto
>docker run --rm -it kitware/cmake:ci-debian10-x86_64-2022-02-25
$ root@d9bc486e1ba0:/# cmake /V
bash: cmake: command not found

```

`automake` exists…

You’re pulling the CI image; why do you think CMake would exist in there already?

Note: It probably exists in the Fedora image because of dependencies from some other package we install.

if i guess it from it’s image name, i think that [kitware/cmake:build-linux-x86\_64-deps-2020-04-02 `https://hub.docker.com/layers/kitware/cmake/build-linux-x86_64-deps-2020-04-02/images/sha256-77e9ab183f34680990db9da5945473e288f0d6556bce79ecc1589670d656e157`] is a image for building.

however, `bootstrap` script file such as `https://cmake.org/install/` doesn’t exist. where are docker images for building?

Maybe you could start with explaining what your goal is here. Do you just want a CMake binary for Linux? The [`.tar.gz` downloads from the webpage](https://cmake.org/download/) should be sufficient.

</div>

when building cmake-self or using command `cmake` on docker, can use kitware/cmake:tag ?

Why would a CMake-specific image be of any use? You also need any dependencies and at that point either adding CMake to the list of packages to install or downloading the tarball isn’t that far away. What problem are you trying to solve here?
