What should I use? In theory in the Cmakelist of version 8.4 there is specified the correct version of the Cmake policies, so I really don't know where to put my hands on.

Nicolo,
deal.II 8.4 is by now more than 8 years old -- you're basically doing "retro-computing" at this point. The version of cmake you have on your system is likely quite different from the ones we used at the time, as are BOOST, the compiler, and a number of other packages. I suspect that the cmake problem you encounter is only going to the first of many problems you will run into.

My suggestion would be to see how much effort it would be to compile WaveBEM with the current deal.II version. There are almost certainly going to be incompatbilities, but in the best of cases they should be relatively minor, and you should be able to figure out how to address each of these if you keep open browser tabs with the changelogs of the last few versions.

If you felt particularly generous, you'd then contribute the changes you needed to make to the WaveBEM repository at
  https://github.com/mathLab/WaveBEM
The authors of WaveBEM are also deal.II developers, and I imagine they would be very happy to accept patches that bring WaveBEM up to date with respect to the current deal.II status.

Best
 W.
