This definitely looks like a permissions issue.
One possibility is if you downloaded the source file with root permissions
or copied it to another location using sudo privileges it may have saved the
file with ownership by the root user so when you try to build it as your
normal user it does not have the permissions required to access the
directory. Cmake does not have to be run as a super user (sudo) and after
you have extracted the source directories from the downloaded file they
should be owned by your login user as should all subdirectories including
the build directories. If you used sudo privileges to create the build
directory a similar problem may have occurred. Check the file ownership of
the source directory and its subdirectories and of the build directory ("ls
-al" if using a terminal).
sudo only has to be used with the "make install" command (and not with the
"make " command to build the libraries) when you are installing to a system
location (/usr/local or /opt) so that the install procedure can copy the
required files to a system owned location.
