I am hitting a brick wall at cmake. Maybe the instructions in the FG wiki page are not clear enough for me.

The CXX compiler identification is unknown
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:14 (project):
No CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER could be found.

Tell CMake where to find the compiler by setting either the environment
variable "CXX" or the CMake cache entry CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER to the full path
to the compiler, or to the compiler name if it is in the PATH.

1. What is your OS?

2. Do you have CMAKE installed?

Yes, I have it installed. I will admit I am no pro at it though. It even opens cmake gui when I click to see the cmakecache.txt

swamp.. if you want to give me ssh access (and sudo power) [FEAR!!]... then I will be happy to take a look (as ^ SHM said).
The error output right there suggests NO CMAKE installed. so that's weird.
But option #2 is:

Is cmake in your executable path?

Code: Select all

which cmake


my output is

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/cmake

Then that's good :S

the answer of your compiler comes to a surprise to me so far.
but try this

change

Code: Select all

cmake [parameters...]


for

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/cmake [parameters..]


And see if the response is the same
