Install Problem

[ABeginnerThomas]

Hi, my english is not so good sorry.

I make this Command during installation: "cmake .." Then I become this errormessage:

---

BUILD_TESTS=TRUE, unit tests will be built. CMake Deprecation Warning at CMakeLists.txt:1 (cmake_minimum_required): Compatibility with CMake < 2.8.12 will be removed from a future version of CMake.

Update the VERSION argument value or use a ... suffix to tell CMake that the project does not need compatibility with older versions.

It seems you're using old version of CMake (2). Try to update to the newer one (3).

Thanks @LRDPRDX, @ABeginnerThomas report back if that fixed the problem. Also note there is an issue with the googletest branch requesting master but it needs to be main, this has been fixed as of https://github.com/gbmhunter/CppLinuxSerial/commit/819155b9510b981b2f9b0087f6b8c2e9bac65060
