I have mkdir build. how to deal with this? Thanks!

I mean I have done all the steps "mkdir build, cd build, cmake ..", the error reports in "cmake" step, I have cmake version of 3.2.0.

if mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && make doesn't work for you, then you might have to checkout a few CMake tutorials.
