#2761: some ExternalLibraries require cmake to build
Reporter: Roland Haas Status: new Milestone: Version: Type: bug Priority: major Component:
We do not list cmake as a requirement for the ET but some ExternalLibarries require it. A quick use of grep reveals:
``` grep -li cmake arrangements/ExternalLibraries/*/src/build.sh ```
these
``` arrangements/ExternalLibraries/ADIOS2/src/build.sh arrangements/ExternalLibraries/AMReX/src/build.sh arrangements/ExternalLibraries/NSIMD/src/build.sh arrangements/ExternalLibraries/openPMD/src/build.sh arrangements/ExternalLibraries/yaml_cpp/src/build.sh ```
For some cluster we may be able to enable cmake using machine.ini settings by loading a module, but for `generic.ini`we either have to declare cmake a ET dependency and then provide instructions on how to install it on the supported Linux / macOS hosts or disable the ExternalLibraries (and their dependents, ie CarpetX) by default.
