I am trying to install a software package called kinsol, a non-linear equation solver, through ccmake as instructed in its documentation. The package requires a cmake version 3.12 or higher. So, I installed 3.17.3. Now, the problem is that my kinsol installation process is not able to locate ccmake and hence gives the message "ccmake ../kinsol-6.2.0 The program 'ccmake' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt install cmake-curses-gui". But using the aforementioned command installs the version 3.5, which again fails in the task due to the version requirement of kinsol. I had come across a similar question in this forum and so I followed the workarounds suggested there as in putting the installation path of cmake in the .bashrc file still without any success. Does anyone know how to make the path of cmake known to the software?
Thanks, DP
