The build directory is not the same as the src directory. I tried that as well. Same result. The CMakeOutput.log has no errors listed. [kt@localhost gnucash-build]$ cmake $SRCROOT CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt: No project() command is present. The top-level CMakeLists.txt file must contain a literal, direct call to the project() command. Add a line of code such as project(ProjectName) near the top of the file, but after cmake_minimum_required(). CMake is pretending there is a "project(Project)" command on the first line. This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it. CMake Error at gnome/CMakeLists.txt:66 (gnc_add_swig_guile_command): Unknown CMake command "gnc_add_swig_guile_command". CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt: No cmake_minimum_required command is present. A line of code such as cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.20) should be added at the top of the file. The version specified may be lower if you wish to support older CMake versions for this project. For more information run "cmake --help-policy CMP0000". This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it. -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! See also "/home/kt/Sources/gnucash-4.11/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
