Description Edward Hervey 2014-05-16 08:25:34 UTC 
when running make install, the Makefile that cmake generated will call 'cmake' for the install phase ... which isn't in the path

install: preinstall
    @echo "Install the project..."
    cmake -P cmake_install.cmake


An easy workaround was just adding the builddir bin directory to PATH before calling make install

Also not a problem if you have installed cmake from binaries as the docs.gstreamer.com documentation still says ;)
Comment 2 Edward Hervey 2014-05-19 08:32:01 UTC 
Might be good to add a check for that then :) If cmake isn't around => error out ?
Comment 3 Andoni Morales 2014-05-19 08:42:26 UTC 
Building CMAKE from scratch is overkill to be honest :) We might just download the prebuilt binaries and untar them as there is no other reason for building from source in this case.

    bootstrap: Use cmake binaries on windows/osx
    
    And update the README for the various requirements. Some URI have
    changed since the last time it was updated.
