Hello, as Martin Illecker explains at his ticket (HAMA-749), there are lots of benefits with cmake: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8368
I had the some confusion when I tried to build. I think we should test if cmake exists at first place in the beginning of the building, and inform the user to install it, instead of failing with a bogus message.
