Hi Chuck,

Concerning HTML Tidy, not sure what you refer to when you say 'master.zip'? What README?

We have just released 5.6.0, and that should be 5.6.0.zip, or if you want to build from the repo -
$ git checkout master
$ git pull
and the version.txt file should contain 5.6.0, 2017.11.25, being the latest release...

But concerning your problem, not sure I really have the answer, but cmake should be able to find a working cxx/cpp compiler in your system...

My cmake 3.2.2 in Ubuntu linux, 14.04 shows "Check ... /usr/bin/c++ -- works"...

Actually tidy does not require cxx/cpp - it is a pure C project - and you could add this to the CMakeLists.txt, like change the line -
project (${LIB_NAME})
to
project (${LIB_NAME} C)

And that will tell cmake to ONLY look for a C compiler... and might get tidy 5.6.0 built...

But you will still need a cxx/cpp compiler for 'edbrowse', since it likewise has only cmake 'project (edbrowse)', in its CMakeLists.txt, which without the [LANGUAGE] option will likewise try to test both C and CXX by default, whether actually needed or not...

The real question is why is your Debian sid failing on this most basic of cmake tests? A cxx/cpp compiler should be installed...

I hope others can address that...

HTH, Geoff.
