Hi all.

OpenMS-2.1.0 configuration fails with CMake-3.7.2:

From the affected lines I would say that the -dumpversion option of GCC7 changed.
Could you post the output of this command?

[sagitter]

The GCC version used is gcc-7.0.1

[jpfeuffer]

Can you try the changes from the PR? I do not have a Linux with GCC7 at hand.

[sagitter]

I'm rebuilding bde813c adding the CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_VERSION option, the code is correctly configured by CMake.

[cbielow]

I understand this is fixed?! --> closing ticket.
