Or, add -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 to try configuring anyway.

The above is just how the build ends and not necessarily the most relevant part.
If required, the full build log is available here (for the next 30 days):
https://debusine.debian.net/artifact/2389232/
The most likely cause of build failures is the removed backwards compatibility
for
CMake versions earlier than 3.5. You can find additional information in my
debian-devel announcement:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2025/04/msg00310.html
About the archive rebuild: The build was made on debusine.debian.net,
using sbuild.
You can find the build task here:
https://debusine.debian.net/work-request/152417/
If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use
reassign and affects, so that this is still visible in the BTS web
page for this package.
Thanks,
Timo

Closes: 1040385 1112717 1114056
Changes:
ball (1.5.0+git20220524.d85d2dd-1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Team upload.
.
[ Andreas Tille ]
* New upstream version
* Standards-Version: 4.6.2 (routine-update)
* Update Breaks+Replaces
* Build-Depends: libgl-dev, liblpsolve55-dev, libnsl-dev, libsvm-dev,
libtbb-dev
* Build-Depends: python3-sipbuild, sip-tools
.
[ Bas Couwenberg ]
* Don't use qtwebengine5-dev on mipsel, package to be removed.
.
[ Yavor Doganov ]
* Run wrap-and-sort -ast.
* debian/control (Build-Depends): Add lost qttools5-dev (#1026815).
Remove libtirpc-dev; not really needed. Remove Python-related stuff
and chrpath (not sufficient for the job at hand).
(libbal1.5, libballview1.5): Mark as Multi-Arch: same.
(libball1.5-dev): Likewise.
(Depends): Tighten inter-package dependencies. Add missing
dependencies to -dev packages.
(libball1.5-doc) <Suggests>: Replace libball1.5 with libbal1.5-dev.
<Conflicts>: Remove; obsolete.
(Rules-Requires-Root): Remove; redundant.
(Standards-Version): Claim compliance with 4.7.2; no changes needed.
* debian/rules (CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS): Remove definitions.
(FORCE_SOURCE_DATE): Export for a reproducible tutorial.pdf.
(common_targets): New helper variable.
(override_dh_auto_configure): Run dh_auto_configure; fixes cross
building. Pass -DBALL_PYTHON_SUPPORT=OFF.
Pass -DCMAKE_BUILD_RPATH_USE_ORIGIN=ON for a reproducible build.
(override_dh_auto_build-arch, override_dh_auto_build-indep): Use
dh_auto_build so that parallel building works.
(override_dh_installdocs-indep): Fix broken symlink; this allows
BALLView to load the demo and the tutorial (Closes: #1040385).
(override_dh_auto_install-arch): Install libraries and .cmake files in
the Multi-Arch location. Don't invoke chrpath. Install .so symlinks
in the -dev packages; they are useless otherwise.
(override_dh_auto_install-indep): Fix lintian W: national-encoding.
* debian/patches/gcc-15.patch: New; fix FTBFS with GCC 15
(Closes: #1114056).
* debian/patches/lpsolve-link.patch: New; fix linking with lpsolve.
* debian/patches/cmake-4.patch: New; fix FTBFS with CMake 4
(Closes: #1112717).
* debian/patches/reproducibility.patch: New; fix two reproducibility
issues related to Doxygen-generated documentation.
* debian/patches/spelling-errors.patch: New; self-explanatory.
* debian/patches/2to3.patch: Make Last-Update DEP-compliant.
* debian/patches/missing_GLEW: Likewise.
* debian/libball1.5-dev.dirs: Delete; not needed.
* debian/tests/simple-examples: New test; compile some of the examples
and run them against all available PDB files.
* debian/tests/control: New file.
* debian/libball1.5-data.lintian-overrides: Fix context syntax.
* debian/libballview1.5-dev.lintian-overrides: Delete; no longer needed.
* debian/ballview.1: Rename as...
* debian/BALLView.1: ...so that lintian doesn't complain.
* debian/ballview.manpages: Adjust filename.
* debian/ballview.desktop: Rename as...
* debian/BALLView.desktop: ...to match the executable. Add %F to the
Exec key to fix a lintian warning. Add Keywords key. Rename
GenericName to Comment to fix an AppStream error.
* debian/ballview.install: Adjust accordingly.
* debian/libball1.5-doc.examples: New file; install all C++ examples.
* debian/upstream/metadata: Add Repository and Repository-Browse.
* debian/watch: Upgrade to version 5.
* debian/copyright: Replace GPL-2+ with LGPL-2.1+. Add FreeBSD and
Modified BSD licenses. Update copyright years.
