2.8.2 is fine for building KDE, but this is not KDE code, you'll have to
talk to the strigi-authors about their requirement.

No, you run this in your local clone of the strigi repository. Not sure
wether you're aware of this, but the single strigi module was split into
multiple git repositories. Apparently there's now also a 'meta
repository' called "strigi" which uses the git submodule feature to
merge back all the different strigi-related git repositories into 1
local checkout. Doing this requires to use the git submodule command
after having cloned the meta-repository and it looks like your cmake
version is not able to do that for some reason.
