Hi,
Impressed as I was by the first appearance of Avogadro, I wanted to
build it on my own machine.
To do so I followed exactly what was written on the developers pages,
http://avogadro.openmolecules.net/wiki/Building:Development_Version
All the external components mentioned (Qt, Cmake Eigen2, git, … are
on my system, with the correct versions. )
But when I try to build avogadro (see below) , I get two errors and a
warning.
I cannot make sense of these errors. The references to the lines in
CMakeLists.txt don’t fit (e.g. there is no include on line 30).
Who can help me out here?
Thanks in advance

Quick question. When you’re building avogadro, are you building the
entire project, or just the “avogadro” subproject? Right now we have
two subdirectories: libavogadro and avogadro. While we intend for each
of these to be buildable separately, that’s not currently supported.
So make sure you’re pointing cmake at the top-level CMakeLists.txt
file. That should do it.
Best regards,

Is the Avogadro source checked out and in your home directory in
~/src/avogadro? It looks like you are trying to build either inside the
source tree, or do not have a working CMake installation. We set the
minimum CMake version for example, yet you have a warning about that not
being set.
If you can provide more information I should be able to help you.

All,
Unable to respond earlier, I spotted the problem. It had nothing to do
with Avogadro, but as it happened I had an alias for ‘make’ which
referred to another makefile, a remnant of another development project I
have been involved with.
I just forgot that I had the alias …
Thanks for efforts,
Bertwim
