Dave,
The info about directories being separate is higher up that wiki page in the
Cmake section. I too missed it not long ago trying to build the 2.7 series.
Perhaps the page needs to be re-organized or maybe inside that Ubuntu section,
it needs to be made clear that the higher general sections need to be read
first.
Regards,
Adrien
