Thank you for the prompt answer. I followed the intructions to build Wt from the sources indeed.
As the "Try the examples" section is right below it and it does not say there that the cmake statement only applies to the case where you download the precompiled packages, I assumed it was part of the procedure. Later I noticed that there are specific instructions in the dioxygen documentation when you build from the sources I can help updating the wiki entry.
