Closed this issue · 4 comments
Support for file(ARCHIVE_EXTRACT ... was introduced in 3.18, while ubuntu 20.04 support only 3.16 :)

Uff, but don't we have an up-to-date version of CMake on Github CI?
See for example https://github.com/actions/runner-images/blob/main/images/linux/Ubuntu2004-Readme.md
cmake installed manually in the ub 20.04 image
I think it is okay for CMake to require a newer version than Ubuntu 18/20.04 do provide for as long as we can provide binary packages for these platforms through Github CI. Or what is your stance on this?
OTOH, maybe we can get rid of file(ARCHIVE_EXTRACT...) alltogether by embedding fetching the UCD.zip from within the scripts/fetch-ucd.{sh,ps} or so (which would then be executed via cmake

i think embedding it might be a good idea so we don't create multiple places to fetch dependencies across projects
