Hi Mike (& All),
We have provided a patch for this issue on our web site which can be
applied to the 1.8.9 source for anyone needing to build on Linux using
CMake.
See: http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/release/known_problems/index.html
Building HDF5 via CMake on Linux is not yet fully supported, and the
current preferred build method on Linux is via the GNU Build System
(./configure, make, make install …), so we have decided not to push the
change into an official patched version of the 1.8.9 source at this time
as we consider this a noncritical issue.
That being said, we are actively working to improve our support for
CMake across other platforms in addition to Windows, and have amended
our release testing and packaging workflow to prevent and catch this
type of issue in future releases. We appreciate the community's
involvement in making us aware of issues of this nature.
Thank you!
- Mike

I was trying to build and install HDF5 on an OpenSUSE box today when the installation failed. Turns
out on line 887 of the top level CMakeLists.txt the capitalization of a file name does NOT match
what is on the file system. It should be "USING_CMake.txt" instead of
"Using_CMake.txt".
Would it be possible to update the source archive on the web site? I am
writing a script that downloads the .tar.gz and tries to build but this error
is stopping the script from executing properly.
Thanks
