Howdy, I have a package complaining about something I've never ran into. I thought I saw a thread on here a while back about this but a search of this mailing list reveals nothing in a long time. Couldn't find anything on the forums either. Guess my memory was wrong. Anyway, it seems to want a newer version of cmake. I upgraded to the newest version, dev-build/cmake-4.1.2-r1. It still complains. I found a bug report but so far, no fix or workaround. Link below. This is the error.
