Hello, I am trying to install deal.ii (8.4.1) on my machine which is running linux mint 18 (ubuntu 16.04). During installation I get the error 'unknown CMake command "DEAL_II_ADD_LIBRARY" . I have verified the sha sum of the downloaded file. I am using cmake 3.5.1.
I have seen a similar question posted earlier on the group but did not find the solution. (I have also tried installing deal versions 8.4.0 and 8.4.2 and had the same problem). Can you please help me resolve this problem. Thanks.
