Cmake 3.16 dates from November 2019 to put things in perspective.
RHEL 8, which many commercial users have not updated to yet, comes with
cmake
3.11, to add some more perspective ;-)
Yeah, that is true, but to be realistic: We do commercial software
development
and even need to stick with RHEL 7 and we do what everybody else does:
Just install a proper cmake during both the CI and the normal
development.
We even install our own compilers or at least the latest devtoolset,
otherwise RHEL 7 is useless.
I don't think the enterprise distros are anything we should really look
at
for determining our dependency versions.
