Usually you do something like:
1) tar zxvf your-software.tar.gz -> this creates a your-software/ directory
2) mkdir build
3) cd build
4) cmake ../your-software
5) make
6) make install
at step 4) you may configure the install prefix with
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/where/you/want
at the same step 4) you may launch
cmake-gui ../your-software
and chose option; install prefix etc... from the GUI instead of the
command line.
at step 6) you may try to build a package instead of installing:
for RPM: cpack -G RPM
for DEB: cpack -G DEB
for TGZ: cpack -G TGZ
then you'll be able to install the built package.
That said if you "just" want to use an up to date CMake
you should first try to use pre-compiled binaries taken from Kitware:
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
CMake binaries are as static as then can so it's usually enough
to unarchive the tarball somewhere and directly use the cmake (or
cpack or ctest)
binary from there.
Is anybody here using RHEL6 with recent CMake version who can help?
