Unable to build - Ubuntu 12.04.2 64bit

Here's the output of cmake .

[~/src/Craft] -> cmake .                                                    ±[master]
-- Using X11 for window creation
-- Using GLX for context creation
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:20 (find_package):
  Could not find module FindGLEW.cmake or a configuration file for package
  GLEW.

  Adjust CMAKE_MODULE_PATH to find FindGLEW.cmake or set GLEW_DIR to the
  directory containing a CMake configuration file for GLEW.  The file will
  have one of the following names:

    GLEWConfig.cmake
    glew-config.cmake

I am having the same issue.
Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS 64bit.

Note: After apt-get libglew-dev

sudo apt-get install libglew-dev
Note, selecting 'libglew1.6-dev' instead of 'libglew-dev'
libglew1.6-dev is already the newest version.

Note: Cmake on Ubuntu is not the latest version

cmake version 2.8.7 - Ubuntu
cmake version 2.8.12 - Current version

Thank you very much...

Same issue here, Kubuntu 12.04. Thanks!

Installing the dependencies also broke my X server for some reason.
apt-get ended up removing xserver-xorg-lts-precise package (No idea if that was supposed to happen)

I fixed it by reinstalling it

sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-lts-precise

I'm having issues with this on Linux Mint 16 (based on Ubuntu 13.10). I installed the dependencies and then tried sudo apt-get build-dep glfw but I get the following error:

Unable to find a source package for glfw

[masterzu]

see #22 : GLEW is include in cmake from the 2.8.10 version.

@masterzu, Thank you... I guess this means we will need to install a newer version of cmake for the time being. I will try it out and report back.

Update: I am now able to compile. Instructions below.
Note: I had to install doxygen as well: sudo apt-get install doxygen

1. Go to this link http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
2. Download the latest version of cmake: http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.12.1.tar.gz
3. gzip -d ~/Download/cmake-2.8.12.1.tar.gz
4. tar xvf ~/Download/cmake-2.8.12.1.tar
5. cd ~/Download/cmake-2.8.12.1
6. cmake .
7. make
8. sudo su
9. make install
10. which cmake
11. cmake -version # should be greater then 2.8.7
12. cd
13. cmake .
14. make
15. chmod 755 craft
16. ./craft

If you don't want to overwrite your version of cmake, you can compile it just for Craft:

git clone https://github.com/fogleman/Craft.git && cd Craft
wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.12.1.tar.gz
tar xvf cmake-2.8.12.1.tar.gz
cd cmake-2.8.12.1
cmake . && make
cd ..
cmake-2.8.12.1/bin/cmake .
make
./craft

This works for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32 bit

Debian 7.2 and cmake 2.8.9 - same issue. This fixed the problem for me:

wget http://raw.github.com/Kitware/CMake/master/Modules/FindGLEW.cmake
sudo cp FindGLEW.cmake /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/

[masterzu]

@mwarning yes indeed.
But isn't it better to change the source then force ubuntu/debian users to change their system configuration ?

if yes, add FindGLEW.cmake in the source tree (I dont know how to do that, not a cmake wizard). if not, change CMakeLists.txt with cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.10)

[mwarning]

@masterzu true; this is just a convenient fix that I like to share

[supreethkrishnarao]

@mwarning, the link you suggested ( http://raw.github.com/Kitware/CMake/master/Modules/FindGLEW.cmake) did not solve the issue for me.. I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.. That could be a reason..

Instead, the following link solved it-
http://jasonjuang.blogspot.com/2013/10/adding-findglewcmake-to-cmake-in-ubuntu.html

Alternatively, FindGLEW.cmake (exactly the same given in the above blog) can be found in the following link:
https://code.google.com/p/nvidia-texture-tools/source/browse/trunk/cmake/FindGLEW.cmake?r=96

Once you download the file, you just have to add it to your cmake as mwarning said-

  sudo cp FindGLEW.cmake /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/
