I had cmake 3.9 version on my RHEL 7.6 system. But for some development work, i need 3.12 version. I downloaded the https://cmake.org/files/v3.12/cmake-3.12.2.tar.gz. Untarred the tar file and Executed the commands trying to install it. But I am getting errors in each of the below case. Can anyone please let me know if you have any idea to fix it and get the latest version?
1st trial
./bootstrap --prefix=$HOME
make;make install
CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:82 (file):
file failed to open for writing (Permission denied):
/workspace/poomanju/_cmake_build/cmake-3.12.2/install_manifest.txt
2nd trial
./bootstrap
make;make install.
3rd trial
./configure
make;make install
I tried the command being root. It seems the installation completes successfully. But when I come out of root privilege and view the version as regular user, I see the version is still 3.9.
