I tried the OSX Universal dmg and the install process appears to have gone badly. I already have cmake 2.4.8 installed so that appears to have caused at least some issues. The 2.6 installer asked me where I wanted it to put the command-line links and I used the default "/usr/bin/". The first time, it appeared to do nothing because when I ran "cmake --version" it said something like "2.4 patch 8" (I don't remember exactly, but not 2.6). I manually removed the cmake files from /usr/bin/ and reran the installer. Now it appears to have recreated the files, but when I run "cmake --version" (or "cmake --help") I get this:
$ cmake --version CMake Error: Could not find CMAKE_ROOT !!! CMake has most likely not been installed correctly. Modules directory not found in /usr/bin Bus error Any ideas? Is there a problem with my cmake 2.4.8 conflicting? How do I remove 2.4.8 and my messed up 2.6 so I can try again? Also, while I only recently switched to a Mac, it does not appear to be common that you create a subdirectory in Applications by default. It seems like it would be nice if the cmake-gui application bundle was just directly in Applications. That isn't a big deal, just a thought.
