Hi Caroline, The error message you're seeing suggests that your cmake version (check with `cmake --version`) is not recent enough. You need to have at least cmake 3.18 installed. If your operating system does not provide a newer version and you're using anaconda or miniforge as your python environment, you can install a newer version that way (with `conda install cmake`).
If you're not using an anaconda flavor, it is also possible to install cmake via pip with `pip install --user cmake`. You then just have to make sure that you call the right cmake binary when configuring ARTS. You might have to provide the full path to the pip cmake version, e.g. `$HOME/.local/bin/cmake ..` Cheers, Oliver > On 23 Aug 2022, at 16:17, Caroline Cox - STFC UKRI <caroline....@stfc.ac.uk> > wrote: > > Thanks, Patrick for your reply. > > I am using ARTS 2.2 as I am having problems getting the latest version to > run.
