External Email - Use Caution ​Hello Christian, Allow me to suggest that you try following the instructions for the Fresrufer cmake build located here, http://freesurfer.net/fswiki/CMake Besides the option to build the 3rd party packages with build_packages.py script, you can also download an archive of the prebuilt packages from http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/data/fspackages/prebuilt/ Another option would be to install the equivalent of the CentOS 7 packages on the Ubuntu system you are using, i.e., you may need to install at least cmake, so you will likely need sudo/admin privileges.

I have followed the instructions on the freesurfer_linux_developers wiki, and have successfully gotten through steps 1 and 2. However, when trying to install the third party dependencies at step 3 via wget ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/fs_supportlibs/prebuilt/centos6_x86_64/centos6-x86_64-packages.tar.gz, I get the following response:
