installing caffe cmake error

Question

I've followed all the steps to install the caffe dependencies. I've bumped into the following error:

find: `dependencies/cmake-3.3.0-rc2/Tests/FindPackageTest/Baz': No such file or directory
find: `1.1': No such file or directory

I'm not really sure what's going on. It seems as if cmake hasn't been installed properly? What's curious is that I have two cmake folders: One in my caffe folder and the other one inside an extra folder I called "dependencies" in which I am compiling all other dependencies for caffe:

doing form my /caffe/ folder:

$ ls 

build
.build_release
caffe.cloc
cmake
cmake-3.3.0-rc2.tar.gz
CMakeLists.txt
CONTRIBUTORS.md
data
dependencies
distribute
docs
.Doxyfile
examples
.gitignore
include
INSTALL.md
LICENSE
Makefile
Makefile.config
Makefile.config.example
matlab
models
python
README.md
scripts
src
tools
.travis.yml

doing ls from my /caffe/dependencies/ folder:

$ ls

cmake-3.3.0-rc2
cmake-3.3.0-rc2.tar.gz
gflags-master
gflags-master.zip
glog-0.3.3
glog-0.3.3.tar.gz
master.zip
mdb

Was I supposed to install all the dependencies inside my /caffe/ folder?

I suggest you should use the cmake-gui for making Caffe. There you can set the appropriate paths easily. No need to install all the dependencies in the Caffe root directory. You may install them in your system home directory.
