Hi Denny,
I want to know more about why you're using cmake. The cmake build system
was added by NREL as part of their quest to provide windows installers. If
you're using cmake because you want to try it out and work out all the
kinks, then carry on.
If your goal is to install a working HEAD version of Radiance on a linux
os, then you are probably better served using the makeall script. The
makeall script is the most reliable build option for unix type operating
systems (since that is what the Greg uses). Also, makeall.sh is updated by
Greg when he adds new programs - cmake updates take longer because NREL
needs to do them, and pass them back to Greg. Someday cmake might be the
preferred build platform for Radiance, but for now if you're using Linux,
you're better off with makeall.sh. You can follow these instructions
(written for compiling on mac). Ignore the first step - installing xcode.

Dear all,
when compiling with static libraries, I get a dependency error when the
program gets packaged for rpm:file:
src/util/trad.wsh:
contains
#!/usr/local/bin/wish4.0
and therefor a dependency is automatically generated for it, which is not
allowed/possible.Solution (if wish is still needed):
Replace the line with
#!/usr/bin/wish
which will create a dependency a tk package meets.
Regards,
Denny
